Bitcoin hits highest level since May 2022

1 min read

Overall crypto market capitalization is at its highest level since May 2022 with nearly $400 billion added since the start of October.

During European morning hours on Friday, Bitcoin surged to $38,800 for the first time since May 2022, extending its robust multi-month upward trend supported by expectations of institutional demand.

The asset increased by almost 3% in the last day, tracking rise in stock markets around the world. Premarket trading saw 0.17% increase in the futures of the S&P 500 and Dow Jones, while the European index Stoxx 600 gained 0.52% since Friday’s opening.

The price jumps come as euphoria around a planned spot exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the U.S. heats up and on-chain behavior suggests a significant amount of the asset has been moved to cold storage – indicating demand and a lack of imminent sell pressure.
