Even as the surge manifests, depth of market interest and confidence are evident in accelerated trading volumes — alongside promising on-chain metrics. Ethereum (ETH) joined the party, surging 8.5% to $4,567.
Secondly, Bitcoin’s recent boom has had straight-up positive spillover effects on AI tokens. SingularityNET (AGIX), one of the AI tokens, was one of these with a significant gain, up 12% to $0.85. AI breakthroughs have started to play a critical role in determining general market sentiment. This change is having a major impact on trading activity internally to the crypto space.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) hit 78, indicating overbought conditions likely to be followed by a healthy price correction. Key Takeaways The RSI is a momentum indicator that gauges the extent of recent price changes. This is useful for quickly assessing if an asset is currently overbought or oversold.
