Market Brief – 24h
Bitcoin gained 1.46% but the session’s alpha lay in AI-exposed miners.

Altcoins outperformed broadly: INJ surged 5.14%, ADA +3.1%, HYPE +2.99%, ETH +2.2%, SOL +1.95%, XRP +1.79%. The standout laggard was US, collapsing 13.67%, while GPU dipped 0.59%. BTC +1.46%, ETH +2.2%, SOL +1.95%, USDC flat. Mining equities benefited from a sector rotation toward AI compute infrastructure, with multi-billion-dollar contracts driving a rerating.
