Cryptos rallied more than 3 percent in the past 24 hours amidst a revival in global market sentiment. An unexpected drop in factory output in the U.S and a less than expected hike in interest rates by the Reserve Bank of Australia spurred the risk-on sentiment across global markets.
Increasing expectations that central banks would pause on the monetary policy tightening dominated market sentiment. Markets now await the job openings data from the U.S. for labor market cues and its influence on the Fed’s interest rate decisions.
The Dollar Index meanwhile hovered between 110.81 and 111.89 and is currently near 110.97. The easing in Bond yields and the Dollar’s retreat from recent highs helped digital assets trade comfortably in the green zone. Stocks too have rallied across regions.
Overall crypto market capitalization is now at $961 billion, versus $930 billion, a day earlier. More than 95 percent of the top 100 cryptocurrencies are trading in the green zone.
