The crypto market has failed to maintain the little momentum it ignited earlier this week. After exhibiting a marginal rally that saw the price of Bitcoin move close to $60k, it has now taken a different turn pushing the majority of the coins to the red zone.
At the time of writing, the global crypto market cap has declined by 1.46% to $2.11 trillion, notably down from yesterday’s $2.16 trillion. In contrast, the total volume traded in the last 24 hours has surged by 15% to $67.72 billion, with the total stablecoin volume taking up more than 93% of this figure. Consequently, the sentiment surrounding the crypto market, as shown in the crypto fear and greed index, has dropped to ‘extreme fear,’ a low not seen since December 2022. Below is a summary of the top crypto prices today, let’s dive in.
