Bitcoin Tops $74,000, Ethereum Surpasses $2,270 as Stablecoin Supply Hits Record $81.1 Billion
Bitcoin and Ethereum rose above $74,000 and $2,270 respectively amid geopolitical tensions, while equities and gold faced pressure, QCP's latest market report shows. Total stablecoin supply increased with USDC reaching a record high of approximately $81.1 billion last week, signaling fresh capital entering the crypto market. Bitcoin ETFs recorded net inflows for five consecutive trading days, with BlackRock's product posting roughly $1.75 billion in inflows over three straight weeks, and the firm notes that a decisive move above $75,000 could trigger a gamma-driven momentum rally, with $74,500 identified as a key short-term resistance level where concentrated short positions face potential liquidation.
