Bitcoin flat near $64,000 as Kospi's record 17% surge leaves crypto untouched
Bitcoin prices remained stagnant near $64,000 despite a massive 17% surge in the South Korean Kospi index driven by chipmakers. While tech stocks rebounded, crypto assets showed little reaction to market movements or a recent security breach involving hardware wallets.
The majors were close to unchanged. Ether traded at $1,907, XRP at $1.08, solana at $74 and dogecoin at $0.07, with roughly $27 billion changing hands in bitcoin and $7 billion in ether. BNB was the exception, up 3% on the day to $590 and the only major holding a meaningful weekly gain. Bitcoin spiked to $65,300 in early Asian hours before giving it back within an hour.
