Bitcoin and the rest of crypto continue to push upwards as news of institutional interest continues doing the rounds. 

The market leader marked a high of $30,700 yesterday before finding support around $30k, where it continues to trade this morning. Ether (Ethereum) is back at $1.9k, up 5% on the day. 

It’s mostly green among the large-caps, some like Cardano (ADA) and Solana (SOL) showing gains of more than 16% over seven days. But BTC leads the pack over this period, with its market dominance pushing past 50% earlier in the week for the first time in two years. Fear and Greed is now also firmly in Greed territory.
