'Uptober' Hopes Return as Bitcoin Price Blasts Past $65,000

Bitcoin surged past $65,000 per coin early Monday and is now just above $66,000, according to CoinGecko data, its highest level since September 27. The rally comes after a slow start to "Uptober," the name traders give October for its historically large gains, and the coin is up more than 6% in 24 hours and over 10% in 30 days. The article links the renewed buying to money flowing back into new Bitcoin exchange-traded funds after the Federal Reserve cut interest rates last month. Ethereum rose nearly 6% to $2,595 and Solana rose nearly 6% to $155.
