HYPE is above $43 today.<\/p>\n<h2>BTC Saw New Local Peak<\/h2>\n<p>Last week\u2019s breakout attempt was halted at $79,500, as the bears quickly regained control and drove it south to under $75,000 by Wednesday after the US Federal Reserve <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-halted-at-80k-as-us-fed-and-ecb-hold-interest-rates-steady-your-weekly-crypto-recap\/\">expectedly left the interest rates unchanged<\/a> for the third consecutive time in 2026. However, BTC rebounded swiftly in the following days and challenged $79,000 once again on Friday after reports that Iran had sent a new peace proposal to the US.<\/p>\n<p>Although it was rejected, BTC remained relatively stable at around $78,000 on Saturday and briefly pumped to $79,300 on Sunday after another proposal reached Washington. It was also denied by the Trump administration, and BTC returned to $78,000.<\/p>\n<p>On Monday, though, the <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-price-pushes-above-80000-for-first-time-since-january\/\">bulls took control<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/altcoins-with-double-digit-gains-as-bitcoin-rocketed-to-3-month-high-market-watch\/\">drove bitcoin to just over $80,000<\/a> for the first time since January 31. This breakout was stopped after <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-price-dumps-suddenly-as-iran-reportedly-attacked-us-warship-in-hormuz\/\">reports<\/a> that Iran had hit a US Navy vessel, and BTC slumped to $78,400, but it was later denied by the US. Consequently, bitcoin rebounded and surged to just over $81,300 earlier today to market a new three-month peak.<\/p>\n<p>It remains below $81,000 as of now, but its market cap has risen to almost $1.620 trillion, and its dominance over the alts is close to 59% on CG.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1436235\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1436235\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD-May-5.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1436235 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD-May-5.png\" alt=\"BTCUSD May 5.
