Bitcoin Rises Above $64,000 as Markets Assess Strategy's Disclosure and Trump's Crypto Comments

Bitcoin rose 1.7% to $64,183 on July 6, 2026, as investors assessed recent corporate disclosures alongside comments from U.S. President Donald Trump regarding cryptocurrencies.

Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) disclosed that it sold 3,588 Bitcoin during the previous week in two transactions, generating approximately $216 million. The company also reported a quarterly loss of $8.32 billion related to its digital asset holdings for the second quarter, according to its latest disclosure.

Market attention also focused on comments made by President Trump during an event at the White House, where he expressed support for cryptocurrencies and discussed their role in the broader financial landscape.

Meanwhile, spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded their first weekly net inflow since mid-June after eight consecutive weeks of net outflows. During the same period, markets also reacted to a softer U.S. employment report, which influenced expectations for future monetary policy.

Ethereum rose 1.5% to $1,812.81, while XRP gained 0.5% to $1.15. Cardano declined 2.5%, and Dogecoin fell 0.6%.

Investors will also monitor the release of the Federal Reserve's June meeting minutes for additional information on monetary policy expectations. Macroeconomic data, ETF flows, corporate disclosures, and policy developments may continue to influence cryptocurrency market sentiment.
