Bitcoin has risen 9% over the past seven days, joined by other major cryptocurrencies including Dogecoin which is up 17%, Solana which is up 8%, and Ethereum which is up 7%.

The recent bull run has seen a flood of liquidations on crypto exchanges, largely on short positions. Over the past day, centralized exchanges saw $285 million in total liquidations, of which $90 million came from Bitcoin specifically.

Elsewhere, spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds saw massive inflows this week. BTC ETFs clocked inflows of $555 million on Sunday and $371 million on Monday after seeing outflows late last week, according to SoSoValue data.
