Crypto Prices Today (Feb 13): BTC Jumps To $97K, ETH Gains 6%, & CAKE Soars 59%

The crypto prices today sustained their bullish momentum, registering substantial gains across prominent assets. Fueled by the buzz around the Bitcoin Spot ETF and dovish central bank comments, investors embraced riskier assets, propelling cryptocurrencies to unprecedented highs.

In addition, the positive momentum, coupled with the anticipation of a potential rally after Bitcoin Halving next year, further contributed to the soaring values.

Bitcoin spearheaded the bullish wave, nearing a new peak unseen in over a year. Notably, Bitcoin, crossing the $44,000 mark this week and approaching $45,000, reflects robust market sentiment. As of now, the Bitcoin price surged 1.64% in the last 24 hours, standing at $44,225.27, while its trading volume fell 15.99% to $23.80 billion.

However, the Ethereum price was near the flatline, noting a slump of 0.40% and trading at $2,365.41. Its trading volume experienced a significant decrease of 27.12% to $11.48 billion. In contrast, the XRP price added 5.75%, reaching $0.6866, with its trading volume soaring by 14.19% in the last 24 hours, settling at $2.05 billion.

Among other crypto prices, the Solana price witnessed a notable uptick, rising by 3.21% to $74.21 as of writing. It has also reached its yearly high of $75.27 over the last 24 hours.

Meanwhile, the positive sentiment also rippled through meme coins on December 9. Notably, the Dogecoin price registered a 7% rise, hitting $0.1034, even as its trading volume dipped by 5.54% to $1.08 billion. Meanwhile, the Shiba Inu price saw a 4.83% surge, reaching $0.00001038, erasing one zero from its price and marking a historic moment for the meme coin.

The recent upswing catapulted the global crypto market cap by 2.07%, reaching an impressive $1.65 trillion. However, despite this surge, caution prevails as the fear and greed index stands at 82, signaling an “extreme greed” scenario. Meanwhile, investors are urged to exercise vigilance, recognizing the evolving dynamics of the crypto landscape. As the market continues its evolution, a balanced approach is crucial for navigating the waves of extreme greed and market dynamics.
