The leading cryptocurrency advanced a modest 1.4% from its lows, trading just above 114,000. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">This tepid performance was more in line with the broader capital markets, where major stock indices like the S&amp;P 500 and the tech-heavy Nasdaq closed in the red.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">This stark divergence is forcing a market-wide reassessment.
