Bitcoin Flirts With $106K as Ethereum Stalls at $2,500—Pi Coin Steals Daily Spotlight

Crypto markets hit another volatile stride today as Bitcoin briefly pierced the $106K barrier—just in time for Wall Street to dismiss it as a ’speculative blip.’ Meanwhile, Ethereum’s rally slammed into resistance at $2,500, leaving traders wondering if the merge hype has finally cooled.

Pi Coin—yes, that Pi Coin—somehow topped the gainers list today. Maybe the ’free mining’ crowd finally found their exit liquidity. Elsewhere, altcoins mimicked the majors’ chop as regulatory whispers from the FSA sent mid-caps into their usual paranoid oscillations.

Pro tip: When your stablecoin’s yield outstrips your savings account, it’s either financial innovation or a very loud warning siren. Probably both.

XRP has surged by 8% today while other leading altcoins—including BNB, Doge and ADA—have surged over 4% in the past 24 hours. Meanwhile, SOL has settled with a decent gain of only 0.59% in the same timeframe. 

Among top gainers, Pi Coin is leading the chart, with it surging over 33% in 24 hours, followed by WIF, KAS and FLOKI. On the losing side, DEXE is the top loser with its price down nearly 6% today.
