Bitcoin price nears $97,000 as ETF inflows rebound and Senate crypto bill stalls
Bitcoin rose about 2% to $96,791 early Thursday, near a two-month high, after U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs posted $843.6 million in net inflows on Jan. 14, led by BlackRock’s IBIT. The Senate Banking Committee delayed its session on the CLARITY Act following objections from Coinbase. Crypto-linked stocks and ether also gained in premarket trading.
