The value of the top-most cryptocurrency rose by $300 (roughly Rs. 24,606). The price of Bitcoin experienced a significant increase due to the better-than-expected performance of the US GDP and lower unemployment claims. The announcement of Fidelity Investments’ intention to launch a Bitcoin ETF has also boosted the optimistic market sentiment, Rajagopal Menon, Vice President, WazirX, told Gadgets 360.
Ether followed Bitcoin on the profit-making side of the crypto price chart on Friday. ETH, at the time of writing, was trading at $1,850 (roughly Rs. 1.5 lakh) after incurring a profit of 0.84 percent.

“All of the top 10 cryptos by market capitalization seem to be trading in the green, with SOL (+16.5%) soaring the most. Crypto markets have traded sideways in the last 24 hours, even amidst rekindled inflationary concerns and proposed Fed rate hikes. Furthermore, a UK bill giving regulators the power to supervise crypto and stablecoins has now become a law after receiving the last required approval from King Charles,” Parth Chaturvedi, Investments Lead, CoinSwitch Ventures, told Gadgets 360.
