Bitcoin price gains 70% in 60 days

The crypto market is rejoicing in a bullish atmosphere similar to previous bull-market scenarios. The fear and greed index shows extreme greed in the market. Metrics such as realized profit and futures funding rates indicate similarities with past ATH breaks.
Realized profit metrics suggest a wealth transfer from old HODLers to new investors and speculators. Futures funding rates have spiked positively, pointing to elevated profit taking and demand for long side leverage.
Ethereum, the biggest altcoin, is also replicating the BTC’s performance. ETH price is up by 52% in the last 30 days. ETH is trading at an average price of $4,063, at the press time.
