This rise is believed to be primarily due to the recent loss of more than 40% of First Republic Bank’s deposits, amounting to $72 billion in Q1 2023, and the US government’s expected seizure of the bank. The stock price of First Republic Bank has also decreased by almost 50% since yesterday.

The possible imminent takeover of First Republic Bank by the US government, along with the potential for further market injections by the FED, appear to have played a role in the recent rise of Bitcoin’s value. First Republic Bank is expected to experience a fate similar to that of other failed banks, such as Signature Bank and Silicon Valley Bank.

The cryptocurrency market is trading in the green, with almost all of the top 100 coins exhibiting single- and double-digit gains. According to CoinMarketCap, the global cryptocurrency market cap spiked by 6.62%, reaching $1.228 trillion at press time.
