Bitcoin is currently trading between $64,000 and $66,800, having rebounded over 13% from its July lows, while WLFI shines with a 12% gain.
Bitcoin has stabilized within the $64,000 to $66,800 range for the third consecutive session, recovering from a low of $57,750 on July 1. The cryptocurrency's struggle to decisively breach the $66,000 mark indicates a need for new momentum to drive further price action.
Conventional markets have provided little support, with Nasdaq 100 and S&P 500 futures both down approximately 0.3%. Precious metals like gold and silver are also retreating after previous gains, contributing to a sense of uncertainty in the crypto market.
