Crypto Prices Today: Bitcoin, Pepe Coin, & STX Lead Market Gains

The crypto prices today sustained the bullish trend seen in December so far, with investors likely to be shifting their focus towards riskier assets. The recent positive momentum in the broader crypto market has helped the major cryptos like Bitcoin, and Ethereum, among others, to reach their record highs in more than a year.

Although there is a flurry of catalysts that may have bolstered gains in the crypto market, it seems that the Bitcoin Spot ETF buzz has contributed a significant part. In addition, the dovish comments from the central bank officials have also fuelled the confidence of the market participants, who are now anticipating a rate cut as soon as March next year.

Talking about the crypto prices, the Bitcoin price soared 2.65% over the last 24 hours to $41,779.01, and its trading volume from yesterday advanced 91.51% to $37.46 billion. Meanwhile, the largest crypto by market cap has touched a 24-hour high and low of $42,371.75 and $40,703.71, respectively.

Simultaneously, the second largest crypto by market cap, the Ethereum price has also maintained a steady momentum, adding 0.40% from yesterday to trade at $2,226.80. Its trading volume over the last 24 hours jumped 69.74% to $15.42 billion, and the crypto has touched a high of $2,273.07 in the last 24 hours.

However, the XRP price slumped 1.59% to $0.6189, defying the broader market trend, while its trading volume in the last 24 hours added 73.94% to $1.93 billion. In addition, the Solana price has also moved towards the south, with a 6.73% decline from yesterday to $60.37, while its trading volume soared 66.30% to $2.17 billion.

On the other hand, the meme coins seem to be moving in tandem with the broader market sentiment. For instance, the Dogecoin price added 2.46% to $0.08978 over the last 24 hours, while its 24-hour volume skyrocketed 127.43% to $1.36 billion. In addition, the Shiba Inu price ticked up 0.20% to $0.000009051 as of writing, and its volume rose 10.84% from yesterday to $465.95 million.

The recent surge in crypto prices has triggered a broader market rally. The recent upward momentum has bumped up the global crypto market cap by 1.47% over the last 24 hours to $1.54 trillion. In addition, the total crypto market volume soared 90.75% to $93.58 billion. However, investors should stay cautious as the crypto market fear and greed index stood at 79, suggesting a greed sentiment in the market.
