Crypto Roundup - Dec 5

Bitcoin recently surpassed $43,000, reaching its highest value since April 2022, driven by expectations of spot ETF approvals and favorable market conditions. Altcoins, however, are trailing behind, with Bitcoin's market dominance hitting a yearly high of 55%. In response, retail interest in cryptocurrencies has surged, as evidenced by a notable increase in trading volumes on platforms like Robinhood. Meanwhile, Coinbase has launched a new service enabling money transfers through popular messaging and social media platforms in over 170 countries, promoting instant, cost-free transactions.
