Thursday Market Pulse: Jan 15



Major cryptos continue their upward momentum today. Bitcoin surged past $97K, capturing a solid 3% daily gain as traders pile into the leading asset. Ethereum trades steady near $3.3K while Solana holds firm at $145.

What's catching attention: BTC's performance stands in stark contrast to traditional markets—gold and equities remain flat, highlighting crypto's independent price action in the current macro environment.

In secondary moves, Monero is approaching the $800 mark as the privacy coin narrative heats up. This surge reflects renewed interest in privacy-focused assets as more participants explore alternative narratives beyond mainstream Layer 1 discussions.

On the policy front, the Supreme Court has again declined to rule on tariff matters, leaving trade uncertainty unresolved. This regulatory vacuum could continue shaping short-term market sentiment.

Overall: risk appetite remains intact in crypto markets, with Bitcoin leading the charge while niche narratives like privacy coins gain fresh traction.
BTC-3,53%
ETH-6,85%
SOL-4,86%

BTC hitting 97K, people still calling for a drop really can't hold it anymore.

BTC breaking through 97K is really outrageous; traditional markets are still sleeping while the crypto world has already taken off.

Has BTC broken 97K? The stock market is still sleeping, but here in crypto we've already taken off. The contrast is incredible.

BTC breaks 97K and is still rising. This time is truly different... The traditional markets are lying flat, but here we are partying like crazy. I'm a bit worried this might be a fleeting rebound.

97k really doesn't mean much; it mainly depends on whether the regulators will suddenly cause trouble... Privacy coins are surging so strongly, it feels like the trend is about to change.

Bitcoin is at 98K, and I'm still hesitating. It's really funny... The gold next door remains unchanged, but we're the only ones showing off here.
