Crypto market summary: As regulatory concerns subside, Bitcoin rises to $114K

At $114,081, Bitcoin (BTC) is up 2% over the last day and about 1% over the week, continuing its recovery above important support. After recent instability, Ethereum (ETH) stabilized with a 2.3% daily rise to $4,200, while it remained flat for the week.

Altcoins moved in a diverse but largely favorable direction: Cardano (ADA) increased 0.9% to $0.80, BNB climbed to $1,025, and XRP gained to $2.90. But Solana (SOL), which is down about 4% for the week at $210, is still under pressure.

Adoption trends are still robust, though, as big corporations continue to express interest in blockchain use cases and institutional flows into Bitcoin and Ethereum products continue. When taken as a whole, these trends show how adoption momentum and policy direction are the two main forces driving the market today.

Even if volatility is still high, new capital inflows and the relaxation of regulatory concerns indicate that the groundwork for future growth is being set as we move into October.
