“Bitcoin is holding near $71,000 and trading at the upper end of a monthlong consolidation range, even as global stock markets wobble and oil prices climb. The broader crypto market, with a capitalization around $2.4 trillion, has remained in a tight band since late January, with major tokens like Ether, Solana, XRP and BNB posting modest gains. Analysts say Bitcoin’s resilience reflects a stabilization phase that may require new capital for a sustained rally, as institutions increasingly explore Bitcoin-native financial infrastructure and so-called Bitcoin DeFi.” (03/13/26)
