- Bitcoin surged past $58k despite its recent decline to the $57k level.
- Mt. Gox’s customer repayment and German government’s BTC sell-off triggered the BTC dip.
- Altcoins like BAKE, OP, W, ARB, and CRV have also reflected on Bitcoin’s positive sentiment.
In a recent development in the crypto ecosystem, Bitcoin has recovered from the market turmoil, surging past the $58k mark. Bitcoin’s resurgence aligned with the market’s overall positive momentum.
Over the past few days, Bitcoin has been riding over a negative track with BTC even slipping below the $55k level. Especially following Mt. Gox’s customer repayments and German government’s massive Bitcoin sell-off, BTC price was under pressure, contributing to an overarching bearish sentiment.
The German government has garnered attention over the past few days with its continuous BTC transfers. Since last week, the government has sold more than 500 BTC. Even in the early hours of Sunday, the authority moved 700 BTC, worth about $40.55 million to the unmarked address 139PoP…H7ybVu, halting the recent rebound of Bitcoin.
The defunct crypto exchange Mt. Gox has recently initiated its customer repayment plan, reporting massive BTC transfers. While Arkham Intelligence revealed Mt. Gox’s transfer of 47,229 BTC to a wallet, the wallet moved these Bitcoins to two addresses. Consequently, the Bitcoin market responded with a bearish trend.
However, at press time, Bitcoin is trading at $57,105, showing an increase of 0.85% in one day. Despite the daily increase, Bitcoin marks massive declines of 7.09% and 19.65% over the last week and month, respectively. Though the cryptocurrency reached $58,420 earlier today, it dipped to the $57k mark later.
Prominent altcoins like BAKE, Wormhole (W), CRV, Optimism (OP), and Arbitrum (ARB) have also reflected on the positive sentiment of Bitcoin, showcasing notable upticks. While BAKE, currently at $0.2545, marks an increase of 10.11%, Wormhole, at $0.2804, surges by 8.12%. The CRV token has increased by 5.29%, trading at $0.259. Meanwhile, OP at $1.44 experienced an uptrend with a 6% surge, and ARB a surge of 8%.
