โGlobal market capitalization and trading volume fell on Thursday. Bitcoin and Ethereum dipped below the $39,000 and $2,600 levels. BTC support between $35,000 and $37,000 may stabilize the pullback,โ said Edul Patel, CEO and co-founder of Mudrex.
โAccording to market cap, major cryptocurrencies are also in the red over the last day. The situation is due to the ongoing war crisis between Russia and Ukraine affecting the economy and driving up inflation rates. We could see a lot of high volatility in the crypto market this month due to the tension of the war," Patel said.
