Why was Bitcoin up on Jul 21, 2026, 9:10 AM UTC?
$66,157
▲ +3.41% (24h) · -0.03% (1h)
Bitcoin is up 3.41% over 24 hours but essentially flat in the short term (-0.09% in 15min), suggesting the recent gains have already been priced in. The sustained ETF inflows and positive regulatory developments (UK inquiry, parliamentary probes) likely contributed to yesterday's move to two-week highs, but no major news explains the minimal intraday movement right now—this appears to be consolidation after the recent rally.
