Bitcoin Breaks Above $77,000 as Binance Spot Price Reaches $77,316

Bitcoin (BTC), the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, rose above $77,000 to $77,316 in a Binance spot quote collected at 1:04 p.m. ET on Nov. 2. A Binance spot reading 15 minutes earlier put BTC at $76,969, making the latest quote $347 higher. Over the full hour leading to the observation, however, BTC was down 0.26%. The two comparisons cover different windows: the 15-minute reading shows an increase into the latest quote, while the one-hour figure reflects the hourly change. Both numbers describe the same observation point, but compare BTC with different earlier times.
