Bitcoin back above $81,000 as hike odds fade, Zcash leads with 15% jump
AI EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Cryptocurrency markets experienced gains on Friday, with Bitcoin rising past $81,000 and Zcash seeing a notable 15 percent increase. The upward movement followed a reduction in trader expectations regarding a potential Federal Reserve interest rate hike in September. Despite the daily gains, most major digital assets showed little overall change for the week.
WHY IT MATTERS
Cryptocurrency valuations shifted upward as traders reacted to changing macroeconomic expectations surrounding potential Federal Reserve interest rate decisions.
Every major token gained on Friday as traders cut bets on a September Federal Reserve rate increase to a coin flip, though most of the majors are barely changed on the week.
