The crypto market is generally rising today. Bitcoin, in particular, has recovered from $92,000 after a short-term decline and has exceeded $95,000. Stellar (XLM) and IOTA have also been among the biggest gainers in the last 24 hours, while some altcoins have declined. The global crypto market cap reached $3.34 trillion, while trading volume fell by 16 percent to $92 billion. Still, experts expect an increase in trading volumes as the holiday season ends.

Performance of Bitcoin and Major Altcoins
Bitcoin (BTC), which leads the market, is trading at $95,089 today and is showing a 1 percent increase. BTC, which reached a low of $92,965 and a high of $95,506, helps ease the selling pressure and stabilize as its reserves decrease. Ethereum (ETH) rose 1 percent to $3,394. XRP reached $2.41 with an impressive 15 percent increase, while Solana (SOL) rose 4 percent to $198. The rise in XRP reflects the positive mood in the market and optimistic expectations for Ripple's future.

The Rise of Stellar (XLM) and IOTA
Stellar (XLM) was the biggest gainer of the day, rising 26% to $0.43, bringing its market value to $13.16 billion. This performance shows that investor interest in Stellar is increasing. IOTA rose 20% to $0.347. Positive developments in IOTA’s ecosystem are reinforcing this rise. Additionally, XDC Network (XDC) rose 19% to $0.087, further increasing interest in XDC.

Altcoins in decline
Not everything is bullish in the cryptocurrency market. For example, UNUS SED LEO (LEO) was the biggest loser of the day, falling 3.23% to $8.75, taking its market value down to $8.12 billion. Also, PEPE lost 2% and Bitget Token (BGB) lost 1.5%. These declines show that these altcoins are struggling despite the market trend.

Meme Coin Market is Volatile
The meme coin market continues to be active. Dogecoin (DOGE) rose by 4 percent to $0.33. Famous analyst Master Kenobi predicts that DOGE could reach $1.2 if it surpasses its all-time high by the end of January. Shiba Inu (SHIB) also rose by 4 percent to $0.00002191, while other meme coins such as AI16Z and PENGU also gained in the last 24 hours.
