Price Movement and Market Metrics
In the last 24 hours, bitcoin traded between $87,599.07 and $92,804.94. It stands at $90,700.79 at the time of reporting, marking a 2.38% increase since yesterday and a 6% rise over the past week.

Global Economic Influences
China’s recent economic stimulus measures aim to bolster domestic consumption and counteract trade tensions with the U.S. The government has expanded a consumer goods trade-in scheme and increased subsidies for digital purchases to revive domestic demand.
Additionally, China unveiled a 10 trillion yuan ($1.4 trillion) debt package last November to ease local government financing strains and stabilize economic growth.
These measures are expected to have a positive impact on global markets, including cryptocurrencies.
Anticipation of the White House Crypto Summit
The inaugural White House Crypto Summit, scheduled for March 7, will bring together industry leaders to discuss regulations, stablecoin oversight, and potential crypto reserve policies in the U.S. financial system. This event has generated optimism within the crypto community, contributing to bitcoin’s recent price appreciation.
Outlook
Bitcoin’s recent price movements reflect a market responsive to global economic policies and regulatory developments. The outcomes of China’s stimulus efforts and the White House Crypto Summit will likely influence bitcoin’s trajectory in the short to medium term. Investors should monitor these events closely, as they may present both opportunities and risks in the evolving cryptocurrency landscape.
