Crypto market back to test multi-month high

Market picture

The crypto market added 2.4% in 24 hours to $1.43 trillion and went back to test highs since May 2022. Bitcoin added 3% during this time, Ethereum 2.75%, and Solana was the top performer among the major coins, adding 8.4%. Toncoin was on a back foot with its 0.4% gain.

Bitcoin has been floundering inside the upward range for more than five weeks now. On Monday, the price reversed to the upside from the lower boundary at $36.7K. On Tuesday evening, Bitcoin’s price briefly exceeded $38.4K but pulled back down after failing to find solid ground to accelerate gains.

The positive sentiment extends well beyond the first cryptocurrency, as altcoins reversed to growth in a broad front on Tuesday. This could be investors’ reaction to a weakening dollar on expectations of an imminent Fed interest rate cut.
