Crypto Market Capitalization Hits New All-Time High

At the beginning of the month, Bitcoin (BTC) price surged, taking analysts and traders by surprise as to what might have caused the sudden increase in price. However, analysts are unsure whether the cryptocurrencies will hold their recent gains. But considering Bitcoin has managed to maintain the price above $5,000, it shows signs of strength that the growth will continue.

This week the crypto market capitalization of Bitcoin and another 2,000 cryptocurrencies hit $186 billion, an all-time high for this year. Apparently, Bitcoin makes up almost half of the crypto market capitalization, with over a $90 billion market cap. Crypto analysts have labeled the sudden rally as the ‘Altseason’ because of the double-digit gain made by the smaller cryptocurrencies.

This week the price of cryptocurrencies continued to grow following the launch of the Coinbase crypto card in the UK. Also, most of the major cryptos maintained their strong positions because of bullish comments from analysts and industry watchers, which caused a surge in sentiments allowing the coins to maintain the high prices.
