Bitcoin Price Forecast: BTC edges closer to all-time high as US-China trade deal cheers markets

Bitcoin (BTC) price is stabilizing at around $104,000 at the time of writing on Monday after rallying 10.44% the previous week.

Additionally, Metaplanet announces that it added 1,241 BTC worth $125.30 million on Monday, bringing its total holding to 6,796 BTC.

Crypto market slows down, nearing a top

Ethereum and Dogecoin have been the stars of this movement, adding around 40% in seven days, although the former's contribution is certainly more significant.
