The currency gained 4% and was last trading at $63,177 on Thursday.
"There's over $6 trillion in money market funds, soon yielding 50 bps less," said Matt Mena, crypto research strategist at 21Shares.
"Bitcoin and other digital assets have historically thrived in low-interest-rate environments. This move could signal a return ofliquidity, sparking a risk-on sentiment and fueling a sharp rally."
Crypto miners Riot Platforms RIOT.O, Marathon Digital MARA.O and CleanSpark CLSK.O rose 5%, 5.8% and 6.1%, respectively.
Cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase Global COIN.O jumped 4% and software firmMicroStrategy MSTR.O, one of bitcoin's biggest corporate backers, gained 5%.
