Bitcoin‘s price slipped below $69,000 during the European morning session after briefly surpassing $70,000 late on Monday. Currently priced at approximately $68,900, BTC has declined just over 0.2% in the past 24 hours. The broader digital asset market also saw a downturn, with the CoinDesk 20 Index (CD20) dropping 0.70%. According to crypto exchange Bitfinex, bitcoin’s decline since March was primarily driven by long-term holders selling their assets. However, this selling trend has halted recently, with a growing number of net accumulating BTC addresses, indicating a resurgence in bullish sentiment.
DWF Labs to Invest $12 Million in Floki Tokens to Bolster Ecosystem
Crypto trading firm DWF Labs announced it will purchase $12 million worth of floki tokens from the open market and the Floki treasury. This move aims to support the dog meme coin-turned-utility project’s expanding ecosystem. Earlier in February, DWF Labs committed to buying $10 million worth of FLOKI, which led to a 50% increase in FLOKI prices the following week. The mainnet version of Floki’s flagship utility product, the Valhalla metaverse game, is set to launch later this year. DWF’s investments are expected to fuel the growth of these initiatives and provide necessary liquidity. The partnership between Floki and DWF Labs began in May 2023 when DWF purchased $5 million worth of FLOKI tokens.
