Bitcoin’s Price Surges Above $28K

BTC rose to a high of $28,650 before retracing slightly to its current level of trading on Binance.
Altcoins Experiencing Gains, XRP Leading the Rally
XRP is the best performer among the major cryptocurrencies, rising almost 20% over the past day and aiming for the $0.60 level. Currently, XRP trades at around $0.57.
As shown in the heatmap above, all of the major coins are experiencing gains today, with MASK from the top 100 leading the market with a 24.6% increase.
