Bitcoin jumps to nearly $70,000, adding almost $190 billion to total crypto market value
Bitcoin rallied to near $70,000, lifting total crypto market cap by about $190B and signaling a risk-on liquidity impulse. The move coincided with large short-covering and broad deleveraging ($1.59B liquidations), while ETH rose ~10%. Supportive macro signals (expanded U.S. Treasury long-bond buybacks, softer yields, weaker dollar) and expectations of friendlier U.S. crypto regulation improved sentiment and boosted institutional ETF inflows.
