Good morning!
The crypto markets continued their upward momentum with the total crypto market cap further improving to USD 141.5 billion and a surge in 24h trading volume to USD 34 billion range. Furthermore, in the top 100, the advance to decline ratio was robust at 86/14. Ontology that jumped +25.0%, in the last 24h, is the best performer, followed by Ravencoin (+18.5%), and Tezos (+17.7%). Bitcoin, Ether and XRP all were up about a percent each to USD 4,086, USD 141, and USD 0.3183 respectively, at the time of writing.
CoinMarketCap announced the launch of two cryptocurrency indices on Bloomberg Terminal, Nasdaq Global Index Data Service, as well as Thomson Reuters Eikon and Börse Stuttgart while Institutional crypto trading platform Caspian announced that it has integrated its platform with cryptocurrency futures and options trading exchange Deribit. The company claims that the move renders it the first institutional platform to offer both options and futures trading in the crypto asset class. In blockchain application, Cryptocurrency exchange Binance is partnering with real estate auctioneer James Pratt Auctions (JPA) to launch a live property auction using bitcoin and Binance Coin. While this isn’t the first property to be bought with crypto, the move marks the first time a live property auction using BTC and BNB will occur. As JP Morgan changed its stance on the crypto currency from being anti-crypto to launching its own currency, the executives have been defending the move by “There’s a difference between trading a cryptocurrency that’s in the market that’s ubiquitous, versus using the technology to enhance your payment infrastructure.”
Have a great day!
