Bitcoin hovered near $100,000 after notching its biggest gain of the new year on reassuring US inflation data that lifted global markets by reviving bets on further Federal Reserve interest-rate cuts.
The digital asset was fluctuated at about $99,300 as of 9:30 a.m. in New York, after earlier breaching the closely-watched threshold, holding on to most of the more than 3% jump sparked by the Bureau of Labor Statistics figures a day earlier. Tokens such XRP and Solana continued to press higher.
