Bitcoin Roars Past $70,000 as Yields Sink, Trump Sparks Optimism
Key Points
Bitcoin surpassed $70,000 for the first time in over two months, propelled by US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s move to push US bond yields lower and a high-stakes meeting President Donald Trump held with crypto industry leaders. Bloomberg's Mike McGlone joins to discuss bitcoin as well as the recent climb in oil. Oil climbed to the highest in almost a month due to Donald Trump’s threat to crush the Iranian economy.
