Bitcoin Price Fluctuation
The price of Bitcoin saw a 1.9% decrease over the past 24 hours, settling at $50,940. This drop followed a peak of $51,900 earlier in the week, attributed to positive Nvidia earnings that bolstered investor confidence and risk appetite.

Additionally, stock market surges have provided further momentum for digital assets, tapping into the overall market optimism.

Impact of Nvidia's Success
Deutsche Bank analyst Jim Reid noted that Nvidia's recent results significantly impacted the overall market sentiment, stating that "Pretty much every global asset class is influenced" by tech giants like Nvidia.
