Bitcoin Near $64,000 Supported by Geopolitical Developments and Weaker US Jobs Data
Bitcoin and Ethereum prices showed modest gains amid easing geopolitical tensions around the Strait of Hormuz and weaker US private-sector jobs data, which lowered expectations of Federal Reserve interest rate hikes. Bitcoin traded near $64,000, supported by steady institutional demand and net inflows into US spot Bitcoin ETFs, despite some profit-taking. Ethereum and other major altcoins experienced mixed movements, with market analysts noting that Bitcoin's consolidation below key resistance levels suggests cautious optimism among investors.
