Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies appear to be gaining traction, as the first quarter winds down.<\/p>\n

Crypto has reached the $2 trillion threshold and is proving surprisingly resilient in the face of global uncertainty.<\/p>\n

As of Tuesday, Bitcoin has totally recovered from its early-year losses. BTC fell from $47,733.40 to $35,070.10 in the first 30 days of the year and has since failed to regain ground.<\/p>\n

At Monday’s all-time high of $47,765, market leader bitcoin broke free from the confined $34,000-$44,000 bracket it had been trading in for the majority of 2022.<\/p>\n

The cryptocurrency is up 18% as a result of a steady rally from a low near $40,000 on March 21. As of Tuesday, the top crypto was trading at $47,899 on Coingecko, 16% in the last seven days.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Shows Positive Signs<\/h2>\n

Despite the favorable market action, analysts cautioned that it is premature to declare the end of Bitcoin’s price volatility.<\/p>\n

Market experts will reserve judgment on the volatility until the price maintains its current advances for at least another week.<\/p>\n

Its relative stability, at least compared to recent performance, stands in stark contrast to stock markets, traditional currencies, and even safe-haven gold, which have all been roiled by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the Federal Reserve’s tightening.<\/p>\n

According to futures trading website Coinglass, its 30-day volatility is around 4%, over two-thirds that of June 2021. On March 16, this year’s high was 4.56%.<\/p>\n

This indicator reveals a currency’s deviation from its own regular norms, and bitcoin has continued to see wild swings, including a 17% spike on March 1.<\/p>\n

It is, however, far less volatile than it was in 2021, when it was capable of fluctuating by up to 40% in a single day.<\/p>\n

Touching The $2 Trillion Mark<\/h2>\n

According to analytics firm CoinMarketCap, the cryptocurrency market’s total worth exceeded $2 trillion on Friday.<\/p>\n

To put it into perspective, on Nov. 10, when bitcoin hit $69,000, the market briefly surpassed $3 trillion.<\/p>\n

The slow climb back above $2 trillion has been supported by the proliferation of coins and tokens – CoinMarketCap now lists 18,511 cryptocurrencies, an increase of roughly 5,000 since November.<\/p>\n

While Bitcoin continues to be the most valuable cryptocurrency, its market share has gradually decreased from 70% of total value in early 2021 to 42% on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Numerous cryptocurrency investors believed they could discern bitcoin’s fate in advance of the temperamental cryptocurrency abandoning them financially.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Ethereum (ETH) reached a daily high of $3,431 per unit around the same time as Bitcoin (BTC).<\/p>\n

At the moment, bitcoin (BTC) controls approximately 40.3% of the $2.26 trillion market, while ethereum (ETH) controls 18.1%.<\/p>\n

When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn. Christian's journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer for his college paper. This early love for storytelling paved the way for a successful stint as an editor at a data engineering firm, where his first-month essay win funded a months-long supply of doggie and kitty treats \u2013 a testament to his dedication to his furry companions (more on that later).

Speaking of chill, Christian's got a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears cats are way smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he adores them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets just chillin\u2019 helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better. Here's the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day - and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies. Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors - and bosses - he deeply respects. So, the next time you tread into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words \u2013 the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.\",\"sameAs\":[\"jomarjet01\"],\"url\":\"https:\/\/wncen.com\/author\/jomarjet01\/\"}]}<\/script>\n","yoast_head_json":{"title":"Bitcoin Helps Market Hover Past $2 Trillion As BTC Nears $48,000","description":"Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies appear to be gaining traction, as the first quarter winds down.

He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies. Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors - and bosses - he deeply respects. So, the next time you tread into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words \u2013 the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.","sameAs":["jomarjet01"],"url":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/author\/jomarjet01\/"}]}},"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Bitcoin Helps Market Hover Past $2 Trillion As BTC Nears $48,000","url":"http:\/\/wncen.com\/news\/bitcoin-helps-market-hover-past-2-trillion-as-btc-nears-48000\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/wncen.com\/news\/bitcoin-helps-market-hover-past-2-trillion-as-btc-nears-48000\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Bitcoin-5.jpeg?resize=200%2C200","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Bitcoin-5.jpeg?fit=1600%2C900"},"articleSection":"Bitcoin","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Christian Encila"}],"creator":["Christian Encila"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"NewsBTC","logo":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32"},"keywords":["bitcoin","btc","crypto","digital assets"],"dateCreated":"2022-03-29T13:09:18Z","datePublished":"2022-03-29T13:09:18Z","dateModified":"2022-03-29T13:09:18Z"},"rendered":"<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"headline\":\"Bitcoin Helps Market Hover Past $2 Trillion As BTC Nears $48,000\",\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/news\\\/bitcoin-helps-market-hover-past-2-trillion-as-btc-nears-48000\\\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"http:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/news\\\/bitcoin-helps-market-hover-past-2-trillion-as-btc-nears-48000\\\/\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2022\\\/03\\\/Bitcoin-5.jpeg?resize=200%2C200\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2022\\\/03\\\/Bitcoin-5.jpeg?fit=1600%2C900\"},\"articleSection\":\"Bitcoin\",\"author\":[{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Christian Encila\"}],\"creator\":[\"Christian Encila\"],\"publisher\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"NewsBTC\",\"logo\":\"https:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2020\\\/06\\\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32\"},\"keywords\":[\"bitcoin\",\"btc\",\"crypto\",\"digital assets\"],\"dateCreated\":\"2022-03-29T13:09:18Z\",\"datePublished\":\"2022-03-29T13:09:18Z\",\"dateModified\":\"2022-03-29T13:09:18Z\"}<\/script>","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/wncen.com\/p.js"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Bitcoin-5.jpeg?fit=1600%2C900","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/487098"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/557"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=487098"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/487098\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/487103"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=487098"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=487098"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=487098"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
