Notable Events
- Cryptocurrencies rose on Friday following a steep sell-off that saw around $150 billion wiped off the market after the Russia-Ukraine conflict. An intraday reversal in U.S. stocks on Thursday and throughout the trading session on Friday led major indices to close higher. This positive price movement trickled down to the rest of the cryptocurrencies.
