Bitcoin rose more than 4% to trade above $61,000, its strongest level in over a week, after Fed Chair Kevin Warsh said inflation risks had eased. A 7.9% drop in South Korea's Kospi on renewed AI chip worries did little to dent the bid.

The Fed chair reiterated the central bank's commitment to its 2% inflation target while signaling artificial intelligence could reshape the economy and monetary policy.

Bitcoin made a strong move above $60,000, but a combination of bearish headwinds may put a hard cap on the rally.
