Bitcoin rallies after Japan rate increase with XLM, INJ, UNI advancing

Bitcoin experienced a rally this week, coinciding with Japan's decision to increase interest rates. This market movement saw several altcoins also posting gains, with Stellar's XLM, Injective's INJ, and Uniswap's UNI emerging as top performers among the 100 largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. The broader cryptocurrency market has shown resilience despite macroeconomic shifts, with investors closely monitoring the impact of central bank policies on digital asset valuations. The performance of these specific tokens suggests a renewed investor interest in decentralized finance (DeFi) and blockchain infrastructure projects.
