Cryptocurrency Update: The cryptocurrency market cap has surged for two consecutive days after a carnage over the past week. On Wednesday, January 26, the global crypto market traded in the green, a surprise to investors as all major coins rose significantly during the day. The market appeared to be stabilizing at this point, after falling steadily after the US Federal Reserve meeting, where it announced a rate hike to cushion inflation. Despite the gains, however, market volumes remained low for the day as traders had already restricted themselves from delving into risky assets.
The cryptocurrency market cap was $1.70 trillion, according to data from global crypto tracking website CoinMarketCap. This was up 3.36 percent in the past 24 hours. However, global crypto volume dropped significantly over the past day as more traders held onto their coins. The total volume of coins traded over the past day was $85.96 billion. This is up 31.33 percent in the past 24 hours, according to data on the website.
Bitcoin prices saw a rise for two days in a row that day, worth more than $37,000 according to data. Last week, Bitcoin prices had hit their lowest point in six months and fell to the $33,000 level. At the time of writing this article, Bitcoin prices stood at $37,863.07 according to CoinMarketCap. It was up 4.26 percent in the past 24 hours, but up 3.62 percent in the past seven days, according to the data.
Ether prices also rose significantly on the day. According to CoinMarketCap, the altcoin rose 4.62 percent in the past 24 hours to $2,528.19 on Jan. 26. However, according to data, Ether prices have fallen almost by more than 18 percent in the past seven days.
