🤖This content was generated by TradingMaster AI based on real-time market data. While we strive for accuracy, please verify important financial information from the original source.
The cryptocurrency market extended its upward trajectory, with the global market capitalization rising 2% to $3.22 trillion. Major assets like Bitcoin (+1% to $93,780), Ethereum (+2% to $3,240), and Solana (+3% to $139) posted steady gains, while XRP surged 12% to $2.37. Altcoins such as RENDER, SUI, and LIT led top movers with double-digit increases, indicating broad-based momentum.
Institutional developments provided significant tailwinds. Bank of America introduced crypto recommendations for wealth clients with up to 4% portfolio allocations, Morgan Stanley filed for a Solana Trust, and Goldman Sachs upgraded Coinbase to 'Buy.' Regulatory progress in Japan, including potential tax reductions and exchange reforms, alongside Vitalik Buterin's assertion that Ethereum has effectively addressed the Blockchain Trilemma through Layer-2 solutions, further bolstered market confidence. However, security concerns emerged as Kraken and Ledger investigated potential data breaches, highlighting ongoing risks in the ecosystem.
