Zcash leads crypto majors with a 10% gain as bitcoin holds near $87,000
Why now
Thesis: Crypto gains on softer inflation and policy momentum
Catalyst to watch: Congressional progress on bitcoin stockpile bill
Main risk: Bill stalls or oil reverses higher
Why it matters
Falling oil eased inflation worries, supporting risk appetite, while a bitcoin stockpile bill advanced further in Congress than any before, signaling potential institutional demand.
Details
Falling oil eased inflation worries through the Asian session, while a bill to make the government's bitcoin stockpile permanent moved further through Congress than any before it.
