Just witnessed history—the UK's FTSE 100 just broke above 10,000 points for the very first time ever. Talk about momentum. The index wrapped up its strongest year since 2009, riding a wave fueled by solid gains in the banking and mining sectors.

When traditional markets move this decisively, it usually signals something worth paying attention to. Financial institutions and commodities-linked assets leading the charge? That's the kind of macro backdrop that tends to ripple across asset classes, including crypto markets. Worth keeping tabs on as we head into what's shaping up to be an interesting period for global markets.

Seeing the FTSE break 10,000 sounds pretty impressive, but if you really think it can drive the crypto market... you're probably overestimating it.

Has the FTSE broken 10,000? Banks and mining are leading the charge. This move is indeed interesting... Wait, is this hinting that traditional finance is about to pull the crypto market?
