1. Week 24: Crypto Market Update

This week in crypto was full of highs and lows as the cryptocurrency market saw a flurry of activity.

• BTC Hits Record High – This week, Bitcoin (BTC) briefly surpassed the $59,500 mark, setting a new all-time high and catapulting the digital asset’s total market capitalization to more than $1 trillion. The news sent shockwaves throughout the crypto community, shifting the narrative and fortifying BTC’s status as a legit asset class.
• ETH Reaches Two-Month Low – While the groundbreaking milestone was met with much fanfare, the effects weren’t felt by altcoins such as Ethereum (ETH). As the king’s allotment rose, ETH has been trading at a two-month low, failing to find much traction in the markets. Analysts attribute the lackluster performance to ETH’s reliance on Bitcoin, as the leading crypto has historically dictated altcoin prices.
• Bitcoin ATMs in U.S – U.S.-based crypto ATM handle manufacturer CoinFlip announced that its kiosks now process more than $1 million in Bitcoin daily. The company attributes the increase to its expanding user base and its heightened focus on providing secure and easy-to-use services. With CoinFlip’s machines now scattered across the U.S., customers can purchase Bitcoin and other top cryptos without hassle.

In other news, Ripple is due in court this month for its fourth hearing with the SEC, Mastercard is reportedly exploring direct crypto purchases, and Coinbase has received a federal banking license from the OCC. Altogether, it’s been an eventful week in the markets and investors are gearing up for more surprises in the coming days.
