Bitcoin is up 3.8% in the last day, trading just shy of $28k. The Relative Strength Index has shot up to 61, reflecting the sudden optimism in the markets.

The market leader has clawed back its gains over seven days with the latest move. Bitcoin spot trading volume jumped 140% in the last day. 

Ethereum is also in the green by 1.7% over 24 hours. Many of the third-generation smart contract cryptos have been buoyed by the market leaders. Solana (SOL) is up by more than 4%, while Cardano (ADA) is in the green by 1.9%, and Polygon (MATIC) is up by 1.6%. 

In other crypto news, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) decided not to appeal Grayscale’s plans to convert its trust into an ETF. The SEC had until Friday to appeal.
