Bitcoin Rises Toward $84,000
Bitcoin rose 1.5% to just under $83,900 on Wednesday, driven by New York Fed President John Williams' comments suggesting no need for further rate hikes in 2027. Major tokens such as ZEC, SOL, and DOGE also saw gains, with ZEC leading the pack by nearly 7%. Chipmakers in Asia recovered from a five-day losing streak, with Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix both rallying. The U.S. inflation report on Thursday will be the next test of Williams' view.
