Crypto Market Jumps $40 Billion in 2 Days as Bitcoin, Ether and XRP Record Major Gains

Hello everyone

The cryptocurrency market has added more than $40 billion within a 48 hour period as major digital assets bitcoin, ether, Ripple, and Bitcoin Cash recorded gains in the range of 5 to 10 percent.

Ripple (XRP), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), EOS, and Cardano (ADA) have been the best performing major digital assets on July 3. Cardano recorded a daily increase of 16 percent while EOS saw a 13 percent rise in value. All of these major digital assets have performed particularly poorly against the US dollar and bitcoin over the past few weeks.On yesterday’s report, CCN emphasized that the corrective rally recorded on July 2 established the trend for the first week of July. The unforeseen rise in the volume of bitcoin and ether led the entire cryptocurrency market to bounce, bringing along both major cryptocurrencies and minor digital assets. 

As of July 3, the volume of bitcoin remains above $4.6 billion and the volume of Ether has stabilized at the $1.7 billion mark. The volume of Bitcoin Cash and Ripple have nearly doubled since last week as well.Previously, even in strong corrective rallies, analysts stated that due to the low volume, regardless of the optimistic momentum indicators, oscillators, and moving averages, the cryptocurrency market cannot find a firm base to surge up in value. This week, the cryptocurrency market saw a solid increase in volume and two stable days in terms of value and volume, leading investors to become more optimistic regarding the short-term trend of digital assets.The volume of Tether (USDT) has also dropped substantially from its yearly high at $4.5 billion recorded on July 1, signifying that more investors are trading crypto-to-crypto instead of crypto-to-stablecoins, which was the case throughout the past month amidst a strong downtrend.
