Today so far 2026-09-21 · 12:00 UTC

Bitcoin is experiencing significant momentum, crossing $84,000 as analysts declare the bear market over and approaching eight-month highs, with some analysts setting even higher bull targets for the asset. Ethereum has also surged past $2,700 following substantial whale buying activity, while NEAR has jumped nearly 80% in a week as Intents volume approaches $30B. Beyond price movements, the broader crypto ecosystem faces both regulatory progress with the Clarity Act advancing in the US Senate and security concerns, including a signature bypass vulnerability that drained two Kasplex KRC-20 token pools.
