BITVO MARKET RECAP REPORT - INSIGHTS FROM THE BITVO TRADING DESK Joel Johnson - Yiannis Kanatas
WHAT HAPPENED IN CRYPTO LAST WEEK

Cryptocurrency prices regained momentum in the first
half of last week before losing steam in the latter half of
the week and ending down modestly for the most part.
The price of Bitcoin, for example, rose above US$60,000
again on two occasion before dropping over the weekend
and currently trading between US$56,000 to US$57,000.
Notably it failed to break all-time highs of US$62,000.
Meanwhile the price of Ether continued to underperform
Bitcoin, correcting slightly more than it could manage to
gain throughout the week and ending down 3.5%. Non-
fungible tokens (NFTs) continued to dominate headlines.

Overall cryptocurrency market capitalization continues to
look towards US$2T, sitting at US$1.8T currently.
Bitcoin’s market capitalization makes up the majority of
that value, sitting at US$1.05T.
