Bitcoin just posted its second best week since early 2021. People are wondering, is this a new bull market or yet another blistering bear market rally. I'm going to dive into that and all of the news that might inform that decision as to whether this is the time to buy Bitcoin or wait for it to go down again. Let's go.

What is up, everybody? Welcome to the Daily Wolf on Yahoo Finance. I am your host, Scott Melker, also known as The Wolf of All Streets. And it's nice to show up on a Monday and see that Bitcoin has rallied and has actually maintained its price. Now, you know, I've got on my McLaren jersey here, Lando Norris winning the Dutch Grand Prix yesterday, our friends over at OKX celebrating that, but we can also celebrate this blistering Bitcoin rally that is not yet showing any signs of abating.

So what happened? Well, first of all, as I said there at the top, crypto roars back as Bitcoin posts its second best week since early 2021. So that's on a percentage basis, but if you look at the actual dollar gain, this was the largest weekly dollar gain in Bitcoin history. It ended up gaining approximately 21% last week, at one point it was up 24, 25%.
