Major cryptocurrencies showed signs of slight improvement on Thursday as better-than-anticipated unemployment and GDP data came in. However, investors remained narrowly focused on the ongoing discussions to determine whether the U.S. government will default on its debts.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) edged lower, but the cryptocurrency prices traded above the key $52,000 level on Tuesday.
Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH), meanwhile, recorded gains, trading above the key $2,900 mark this morning.
