What Happened
Bitcoin rose above $70,000 during quiet post-Easter U.S. trading, gaining nearly 4% in 24 hours. Ether, XRP, and Solana posted similar advances. Stock market indices also climbed slightly ahead of Trump's Iran ultimatum. Several contrarian bottoming signals emerged, including executive departures at bitcoin treasury companies ProCap Financial and Nakamoto, plus miners selling holdings. Analyst Willy Woo predicted sideways trading for 8-12 years.
