Bitcoin observed a significant surge in social media discussions, with 43% of all related conversations reflecting its recent market value peak of over $123.1K, signaling a potential market top and retail FOMO. Meanwhile, Indian crypto exchange CoinDCX experienced a major hack resulting in a loss of $44 million.
