Why Bitcoin is up 2.0% today

Analysis

Bitcoin rose about 2% over the past 24 hours as ETF-related headlines helped support sentiment, even while price action remained capped below $70,000 due to still-shallow demand. The Block noted BTC has been β€œdefensive” under $70,000 with limited upside tied to modest ETF flow dynamics, which fits a grind higher rather than a breakout.
