Market Overview
The global cryptocurrency market capitalization stands at approximately $3.31 trillion, reflecting a 2.44% decrease over the past 24 hours.
Bitcoin and Ethereum
Bitcoin (BTC): Trading at around $95,584.96, Bitcoin has experienced a 0.60% increase in the last 24 hours.
Ethereum (ETH): Priced at approximately $2,674.74, Ethereum has seen a 0.47% rise over the same period.
Market Movements
Ether's recent rally to $2,850 was short-lived, leading to a market-wide dip with Bitcoin slipping below $96,000. Traders suggest that this brief surge may have been a catch-up trade, with potential for a reversal.

United States: The Federal Reserve Chair, Jerome Powell, is scheduled to testify this week, with potential implications for the cryptocurrency market. Investors are closely monitoring his statements for insights into future monetary policies.
Market Trends
Investors are increasingly turning to Ether ETFs, with $393 million in inflows this month, as Ethereum's upcoming Pectra upgrade is anticipated to positively impact the cryptocurrency.
NFT Market
A notable NFT collector has purchased digital art for $3 million, marking the largest sale in three years and highlighting the continued growth and interest in the NFT space.
Upcoming Events
The Consensus Hong Kong event is scheduled for later this week, expected to bring together industry leaders to discuss the future of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology.
