Bitcoin Breaks Above $78,000 as Binance Spot Price Reaches $78,082

Bitcoin (BTC) rose above $78,000, reaching $78,082 on Binance spot at 11:43 p.m. ET Thursday (03:43 UTC Friday), in TokenPost’s own price collection. Bitcoin is the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization.

The latest reading was $459 above the $77,623 price recorded 15 minutes earlier. BTC also gained 0.67% over the hour through the 11:43 p.m. ET observation. Both comparisons refer to Binance’s spot market, with the percentage covering a one-hour window and the earlier price marking the 15-minute comparison.

The spot price stood $82 above the $78,000 threshold at that time. The figures describe one BTC price series from one exchange, rather than an average across exchanges. That ties the reported level to the stated venue and observation time.

At the observation time, the latest quote was above $78,000 while the 15-minute comparison was below that level. The hour-over-hour change was positive at 0.67%. The figures show bitcoin’s spot movement over two comparison periods ending at the same time and venue.
