Laura Shin: Bitcoin passes $118,000 amid market shifts @laurashin: Bitcoin surge and Robinhood probe

Bitcoin has experienced an unprecedented surge, breaking past the $118,000 mark in recent trading.

In a significant market move, Bitcoin's price has skyrocketed, reflecting increased investor confidence amid ongoing financial and regulatory developments.

Recent events have also drawn heightened scrutiny to the stewardship of funds within leading crypto firms—a scrutiny previously highlighted in allegations of misuse of FTX customer funds—as regulatory oversight continues to intensify across the sector.
