Bitcoin surpasses $120,000, but there is no euphoria across the web. Unlike previous peaks, this meteoric rise is not causing any popular excitement or a surge in searches.

Over the past week, the OG coin witnessed consecutive days of price increases, reaching an all-time high of $ 118,731 on July 11.

Prominent market personality Matthew Hyland even asserted that altcoins may have a greater upside, as many currently surge independent of Bitcoin’s influence.
As Bitcoin soars to new heights, some analysts shout about rational euphoria. Others, more cautious, remind us that the party may be short-lived.

XRP, buoyed by a record influx of wallets holding more than one million tokens, has just provided a striking illustration.
