In the third week of May, the cryptocurrency market witnessed a remarkable recovery in Bitcoin. This safe investment surged strongly from $60,000 to $67,700. Currently, Bitcoin is trading in the range of $66,000 – $67,000. The main driver behind this price increase is the continuous influx of capital from ETF funds into the market. However, despite the recent recovery, Bitcoin has been oscillating within the $60,000 – $72,000 range for a prolonged period since February of this year.

While Bitcoin saw impressive recovery, altcoins were not as fortunate. Many altcoins continued to plummet due to being previously overvalued, with most of the capital influx into the market now focused solely on Bitcoin. This has led to a clear divergence between Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, with investors prioritizing safety amidst market volatility.
