Bitcoin and Ether Surge to Three-Week Highs as Friday Afternoon Buying Frenzy Ignites Markets

Crypto markets just got their weekend started early—with a serious bang.

Friday afternoon bids sent Bitcoin and Ether screaming to three-week highs, proving once again that digital assets don't care about traditional market hours. Or banker weekends.

No fluff, no filler—just pure momentum buying catching fire right when Wall Street clocks out. Because why let pesky things like closing bells get in the way of a good rally?

Traders piled in, shorts got squeezed, and the entire complex flipped green in a classic 'risk-on' sprint into the close.

Let's be real—it's almost poetic. While finance bros were already halfway to the Hamptons, crypto was busy printing. Some things never change—like the market's ability to humble anyone who thinks they've got it all figured out.
