The move marks a new milestone for the world\u2019s largest cryptocurrency and underscores its growing correlation with the broader tech sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The rally comes as Nvidia (NVDA) hit a $4 trillion valuation, with the Nasdaq Composite and S&amp;P 500 also reaching new highs this week. \u201cHistorically, Bitcoin has remained highly correlated with tech stocks, and this correlation is still playing out,\u201d wrote Nic Puckrin, founder of the Coin Bureau.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Year to date, Bitcoin is up roughly 21%, supported in part by pro-crypto policies under the Trump administration, including the creation of a strategic Bitcoin reserve. Recent price stability \u2014 with the token trading within a $10,000 range over the past two months \u2014 has provided a strong base for this latest breakout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Institutional and corporate interest has been key. Dilin Wu of Pepperstone noted \u201csustained structural inflows\u201d and highlighted increased participation from firms like Strategy (MSTR), GameStop (GME), and Trump Media &amp; Technology Group (DJT), which recently filed to launch a \u201cCrypto Blue Chip ETF\u201d with 70% Bitcoin exposure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding to the momentum is next week\u2019s \u201cCrypto Week\u201d on Capitol Hill, where lawmakers are set to debate major legislation, including the GENIUS Act, which proposes a federal framework for stablecoins. A favorable outcome could accelerate institutional adoption and reinforce Bitcoin\u2019s status as a macro asset, said Kaiko AI CEO Jesse Jarvis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Crypto-linked stocks rallied in tandem, with Circle (CRCL) gaining 2% and up over 500% since its June IPO. Trading platforms Robinhood (HOOD) and Coinbase (COIN) also saw gains, reflecting the market\u2019s optimism for further crypto integration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might like this article:<a href=\"https:\/\/stoxpo.com\/index.php\/2025\/07\/11\/alibabas-100-billion-wipeout-highlights-mounting-pressure-in-chinas-food-delivery-war\/\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">Alibaba\u2019s $100 Billion Wipeout Highlights Mounting Pressure in China\u2019s Food-Delivery War<\/mark><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crypto rallies alongside tech giants as favorable policy and regulation fuel investor confidence Bitcoin (BTC-USD) surged to a fresh all-time high on Friday, breaking above $118,000 amid a wave of bullish momentum sweeping across risk assets.
