Bitcoin has experienced a significant surge, approaching the $100,000 mark. As of February 10, 2025, bitcoin is trading at $97,605, reflecting an increase of $636, or approximately 0.66%, from the previous close. The day's trading range saw a high of $97,937 and a low of $94,747.

Ethereum, the second-largest Cryptocurrency by market capitalization, is currently priced at $2,645.11, marking a slight decrease of $12.46, or 0.47%, from its prior close. Throughout the day, Ethereum's price fluctuated between a high of $2,668.35 and a low of $2,541.34.

Solana has demonstrated notable growth, with its price reaching $204.14, an uptick of $2.40, or 1.19%. The day's trading for Solana recorded a peak at $205.63 and a trough at $194.02.

XRP is currently valued at $2.43, experiencing a decline of $0.04, or 1.62%, from the previous close. The cryptocurrency's intraday high was $2.47, with a low of $2.32.

The cryptocurrency market has been experiencing heightened volatility, influenced by various factors including geopolitical tensions and regulatory developments. Notably, recent policy decisions, such as the imposition of new tariffs by the U.S. on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China, have led to significant market reactions. These tariffs resulted in a substantial liquidation in the crypto market, amounting to $2 billion, with Bitcoin experiencing a 7.5% decline to $91,969, and Ethereum dropping by 20.1% to $2,510.

Despite these fluctuations, institutional interest in cryptocurrencies remains strong. Strategy Inc., formerly known as MicroStrategy, has raised an additional $584 million through the sale of preferred stock to further its $42 billion cryptocurrency acquisition plan. The company has acquired a total of 218,887 bitcoins between October 31 and January 26, underscoring the growing institutional adoption of digital assets.
