BTC Recovers Amid Rising Demand, Binance Unveils Listings

The crypto universe has concluded yet another week with attention-nabbing developments unfolding across the broader market. While Bitcoin recovered from a $53K low to reach $60K in the past seven days, Binance announced a plethora of listings for numerous tokens. Here’s a brief report on some of the most buzzworthy headlines for this week, which have echoed a frenzy among market participants.

Bitcoin Regains $60K Amid Rising Institutional Demand & Macro Events

As mentioned above, the flagship coin recovered from a $53K low this week to top $60K. This rising movement is primarily attributable to increasing demand for the asset across the market.

Bitcoin ETFs registered $403.81 million in weekly inflows as of September 13, per Soso Value data, underscoring rising institutional demand. Further, this week saw Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy bag $1.11 billion worth of BTC, validating increasing demand for the asset.

Simultaneously, even Japan’s Metaplanet bought BTC this week after revealing plans to do so in an official announcement. Macroeconomic events, in the interim, have further bolstered the flagship crypto’s price movements.

The U.S. CPI inflation came in line with market expectations at 0.2% for August. Meanwhile, even the U.S. PPI was slightly higher than the consensus estimate, increasing by 0.3%. These statistics have raised market expectations of a looming Fed rate cut ahead. Altogether, macroeconomic factors have sparked optimism for risk assets such as BTC, as seen by the recent price action.

BTC price rested at $60,162 as the week closed, a nearly 10% upswing in the past seven days.

Binance Announces A Stockpile of Crypto Listings

Meanwhile, crypto exchange giant Binance announced numerous listings this week, sparking a frenzy among market participants.

Continuing to tap into emerging markets, Binance this week announced Hamster Kombat (HMSTR) as its 58th launchpool project. Simultaneously, the exchange added Catizen (CATI) as the 59th launchpool project.

Moreover, the CEX rolled out a stockpile of listings for Polygon (POL), ex-MATIC, extending support to the tokenomics shift. POL’s price soared nearly 15% with the Binance announcement.

Similarly, the exchange also rolled out AERGO listing this week, igniting an upward trajectory in the asset’s price. Also, the exchange added Rocket Pool (RPL) to its stockpile of offerings this week, pushing RPL price up nearly 30% with the listing.

Altogether, this week mainly saw macroeconomic events kindle market sentiments while BTC price recovered with rising demand. Binance continued to cement its global foothold with enhanced user offerings.
