After last weeks massacre that drove bitcoin to a multi-month low, the assets recovery attempts continue in full force as it jumped above $65,000 for the first time since April 24.

Several altcoins have produced even more impressive gains over the past day, with TON, SOL, and AVAX standing out from the larger caps.

BTC Goes Above $65K

It was less than a week ago, at the start of May, when the primary cryptocurrency was dumping hard and fell to a two-month low of $56,500. This came amid growing ETF outflows and fears about what the US Fed might do during its FOMC meeting.

The central banks decision not to pivot from its current monetary policy resulted in immediate volatility, but it wasnt until last Friday that BTC actually recovered some ground and jumped to just under $60,000.

Another leg up followed later that day and during the weekend that drove bitcoin to $64,000. It was a bit shaky there this morning, but the bulls stepped up on the gas pedal and pushed the cryptocurrency to a 12-day high of almost $65,500.
