What happened
Bitcoin returned above $77 500, but only two tokens maintain weekly gains
Why it matters
The movement affects major tokens and occurs amid expectations of a Fed rate change, but weekly market stability remains limited.
Bitcoin rose again above the $77 500 mark, while XRP showed the best performance among major tokens. According to CoinDesk, the probability of a Federal Reserve rate hike approached 66%.
Over the past 24 hours, all major tokens were in positive territory. However, over the week, only zcash and hyperliquid maintained gains, indicating a less uniform market movement picture.
The available material consists of CoinDesk metadata and a brief synopsis, so details regarding the scale of changes, price fixation times, and reasons for the movement require further verification.

Editorial context
Confidence: medium
The likely implication is increased market attention to the combination of broad daily growth and weaker weekly stability. The next observable signal will be the preservation of weekly gains by a larger number of assets or their narrowing. Significant uncertainty is associated with the lack of full publication and independent confirmation of data.
