As an analyst with over a decade of experience in the financial markets, I must say that this rollercoaster ride we’ve witnessed in the cryptocurrency market over the past 24 hours is nothing new to me. It’s just another reminder of the inherent volatility in this asset class, a trait that has been both its bane and boon since its inception.


Over the last day, the wider cryptocurrency sector experienced a wild ride, dipping towards its lowest point for the month, rebounding, and then falling again. This volatility has led to significant liquidations within the derivatives market and caused the overall industry capitalization to drop below $2.1 trillion

First things first, let’s begin with Bitcoin.

Bitcoin Bulls Unable to Stage a Recovery

Yesterday’s report indicated that the price dipped under $56,000, reaching a new monthly low, which in turn led to a loss of more than $100 billion in total market capitalization across all cryptocurrencies

Yesterday evening, Bitcoin enthusiasts made an effort to rebound, driving the price over $58,000, effectively wiping out most of the losses experienced throughout the day

It’s important to note that a significant portion, around $31 million, of Bitcoin trades has been liquidated, while Ethereum follows closely with approximately $17.25 million positions being wiped out

Interestingly, over the last 24 hours, two digital currencies have particularly caught my attention. Specifically, I’m referring to Helium (HNT) and Injective (INJ). Helium has experienced a surge of 11.7%, while Injective follows closely with a rise of 7.2%
