Crypto market breadth outpaces S&P 500 as Bitcoin holds near $83,850

  • Bitcoin traded around $83,850 after breaking above its May local high, challenging bearish traders and macroeconomic forecasts.
  • Bull Theory reported 40% three-month growth for Bitcoin, 66% for Ethereum and more than 30% growth in total cryptocurrency market capitalization.
  • The weekly close is a key test as rising 10-year Treasury yields contributed to Bitcoin’s 2.8% retreat from its $87,363 high.

Crypto market breadth remained stronger than that of the S&P 500, with 88 of the 100 largest cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, above their 200-day simple moving averages as of Wednesday. Source figures for the S&P 500 differed, with 257 constituents below the measure in one account and 243 stocks above it in another.
