Crypto bulls are back in charge as Bitcoin claws its way to $110K—proving once again that reports of its death were greatly exaggerated. Meanwhile, Ethereum flexes its muscles with a decisive breakout above $2,700.

Altcoins join the party: XRP, BNB, and SOL all post 2% gains—because what’s a crypto rally without the supporting cast? Traders cheer while traditional finance pundits scramble to explain how ’speculative assets’ keep outperforming their beloved bonds.

Another day, another reminder that the market doesn’t care about your risk models. Just ask the hedge funds still shorting BTC at these levels.

Altcoins like XRP, BNB, and SOL also followed Ethereum’s rally, with each gaining over 2% in the past 24 hours. Solana stood out in particular, with reporting a 2.67% gain and trading near $179, as its resilience and bullish patterns caught traders’ attention. BNB reached $690, while XRP hit $2.33, supported by positive market sentiment. However, not all altcoins kept pace, with some like Sui (SUI) and chainlink (LINK) seeing slightly higher gains of 3-4% in certain reports.
