Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed BTC/USD holding firm above $21,000 on the day.
The pair remained cool amid news from Japan, where the central bank — the Bank of Japan (BoJ) — had decided to keep an ultra-easy policy in place, defying expectations of an interest rate hike.
