On July 3, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: $BTC) was trading at $62,128 U.S., having gained 1% in the last 24 hours. Bitcoin's price is back above the key support level of $60,000 U.S. that analysts say is needed for a sustained rally to begin. A week ago, Bitcoin was trading at a 21-month low of $58,000 U.S. Other cryptocurrencies are also staging a rebound, with Ethereum's price up 3% over the past 24 hours to $1,740 U.S. Heading into the July 4th holiday weekend in America, crypto prices were gaining ground as investors rotate capital out of high-flying microchip and semiconductor stocks such as Micron Technology (NASDAQ: $MU) and SanDisk (NASDAQ: $SNDK).Adding to the bullish sentiment around crypto is news that exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that track the spot price of Bitcoin have seen an influx of capital following a 10-day losing streak. Bitcoin ETFs attracted $221.7 million U.S. of capital on July 2, their biggest inflow in two months. The inflows ended a difficult 10-day outflow streak that saw investors pull a total of $2.73 billion U.S. from the funds.More From Cryptoprowl:Ripple, The Company Behind XRP, Is Valued At $50 BillionEightco Secures $125 Million Investment From Bitmine And ARK Invest, Shares SurgeBlockchain Projects Decline 75% As Developers Shift To A.I.Stanley Druckenmiller Says Stablecoins Could Reshape Global FinanceNew York Stock Exchange Invests $600 Million In PolymarketHere's what else happened with cryptocurrencies over the past week…Strategy Announces $2 Billion Stock Buyback Program: Strategy (NASDAQ: $MSTR) has announced a new $2 billion U.S. stock buyback program as it looks to attract investors and boost its share price.
