O Bitcoin está mais uma vez no modo de descoberta de preços, atingindo novos máximos todos os dias, com o preço mais recente pouco abaixo de US$ 108.000 há algumas horas.
Muitas altcoins também seguiram o exemplo do Bitcoin, incluindo XRP, XLM e CRO. No caso do Ripple, a capitalização de mercado do ativo ultrapassou mais uma vez a do USDT.
BTC continua subindo
Há apenas uma semana, a principal criptomoeda ainda estava lutando para manter seu impulso ascendente, com os preços recuando várias vezes para US$ 94.400. No entanto, os touros conseguiram manter este suporte e lançaram uma recuperação que empurrou o preço para US$ 98.000 na quinta-feira e acima de US$ 100.000 na sexta-feira.
Since then, Bitcoin's trading price has mainly remained in the six-figure range. On Monday, Bitcoin broke through $106,000, refreshing the historical high of $103,800 set at the beginning of December.
After a brief pullback in the afternoon, Bitcoin embarked on a new round of increases in the evening, especially during the Asian trading session on Tuesday morning, with prices soaring to $107,800, setting a new all-time high.
Despite a subsequent pullback, Bitcoin remains above $107,000. Its market cap has surged to over $2.1 trillion, and its market dominance on CoinGecko is nearing 54%, further consolidating its control over altcoins.

XRP is on the rise
Yesterday, the biggest news in the cryptocurrency industry came from Ripple, which announced that its stablecoin has been approved and will officially launch on December 17. This news spurred a rapid rise in XRP, which surged from below $2.37 earlier to nearly $2.6, a multi-day high. Additionally, XRP has once again surpassed USDT, reclaiming the third position in market cap.
Large-cap altcoins like XLM and CRO also performed well, rising by 9% and 7% respectively. ETH broke back above $4,000 after a slight increase, with gains similar to SOL, BNB, ADA, and AVAX.
In contrast, TON and LINK have both pulled back about 4%.
The total market cap of cryptocurrencies increased by $90 billion in a day, reaching a peak of nearly $3.95 trillion.
