The fourth Bitcoin halving is now behind us. Everyone now anticipates a rise in the prices of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. BTC, the flagship cryptocurrency, today broke the $66,000 resistance. As Bitcoin’s price increased, Bitcoin Layer-2 coins left the cryptocurrency BTC behind with an increase of 5% to 20% following the halving of mining rewards. This rise occurred amidst a spike in transaction fees on the Bitcoin Blockchain led by Runes. With BTC’s halving, tokens associated with Bitcoin Layer-2 solutions particularly stood out. Stacks’ (STX) native token STX rose about 20% to $2.87 due to the halving effect. Meanwhile, Bitcoin gained just over 4.7%, reaching $66,300.
