Today’s edition of OKEx Insights’ Crypto Market Daily covers Bitcoin, Ethereum, altcoins and DeFi.
The price of Bitcoin ( BTC) has increased by 3.7% over the past 24 hours and is currently holding a gain of 14.3% over the past seven days. As has been the theme recently, altcoins are failing to keep pace with the cryptocurrency market leader — with most of the majors either trading flat or down.
BTC’s leadership has driven the total cryptocurrency market capitalization up an additional 2% to $409,054,608,529, as per data from CoinGecko. Meanwhile, BTC dominance has increased nearly an entire percentage point and now stands at 61.7%.
