Bitcoin and many other cryptocurrencies experienced a surge in value today, driven by several key factors. Market participants celebrated the first trade deal signed after Donald Trump’s Liberation Day speech, which bolstered optimism in the market. The rally was further fueled by positive anticipation surrounding potential Fed rate cuts later this year and the announcement of new trade agreements between the U.S. and the UK. Binance’s acquisition of Deribit, a prominent player in options and futures trading, also contributed to the upward momentum in crypto prices. Coinbase’s recent purchase of Deribit further positions the exchange for greater participation in this dynamic market.
