The cryptocurrency market saw a slight dip in momentum over the past day, with the global market cap declining by 0.72% to $2.42 trillion. Trading activity has also softened, as 24-hour volume shrank by 20.5% to $83.11 billion. Despite this, investor sentiment remains strong, with the Fear & Greed Index showing a reading of 66, reflecting a “Greed” phase that could hint at cautious optimism among market participants.

Bitcoin Today: Steady Gains Amid Cautious Optimism

Bitcoin managed to gain a modest 0.34% in the past 24 hours, bringing its value to $72,526.77. While the trading volume saw a decline of 28.17%, BTC still shows resilience near its 24-hour high of $72,905.30. With the current market sentiment favoring “Greed,” Bitcoin’s position above the $70k mark suggests a continued interest in the digital asset, even as the volume dips signal a quieter trading day.
