by

As an experienced market analyst, I’ve seen my fair share of market fluctuations in the cryptocurrency space. The recent surge in Bitcoin and subsequent double-digit gains for several altcoins is a welcome sight, especially after a prolonged period of sideways movement.

Bitcoin experienced a noteworthy surge in trading activity over the past day, significantly boosting investor confidence and inciting substantial financial inflows into the cryptocurrency market.
