The crypto market cap has returned to its peak, which reached around $2.49 trillion a week ago, adding 3.3% in the last 24 hours. At this stage, the top coins are the lifting force for the market, with BTCUSD up 3.1%, Ethereum up 4.4%, and Solana up 5.5%.
Bitcoin’s price has reached $69.5K, its highest since mid-June. The Bitcoin 2024 conference tipped the scales in favour of the bulls. The technical picture speaks in favour of further upside, as the latest spurt came after a local shakeout that removed overbought conditions and broke the resistance of the descending channel.
Ethereum is gaining momentum after pushing back from its 200-day moving average. Twice in the past month, the main altcoin got support on dips below this line. On Monday, the coin is testing the 50-day average, rising to $3380, the taking of which opens a fast route to $3500 and then $4000.
Solana is making steady progress upwards, reaching $192, its highest since early April. This shows a stronger recovery compared to Bitcoin and the broader market, where capitalisation is lower than the peak in early June.
According to SoSoValue, net outflows from spot Ethereum-ETFs rose to $162.7 million on 26 July, continuing for a third day. Total assets under management (AUM) fell to $8.97 billion.

Solana (SOL) surpassed BNB in market capitalisation and ranked fourth on CoinMarketCap.

According to Trump, the US will become the world’s cryptocurrency capital.
