Monday’s bull run saw the total capitalization of the crypto market breach the trillion dollar mark once more. According to Coinmarketcap data, the crypto market cap soared to $1.02 trillion, up 6 percent from the previous close. The last month that the crypto market crossed the $1 trillion dollar level was on June 13, according to Cointelegraph.
“The global crypto market cap is $1.02T, a 6.01% increase over the last day,” Coinmarketcap wrote. “The total crypto market volume over the last 24 hours is $88.15B, which makes a 21.73% increase.

The volume of all stable coins is now $79.88B, which is 90.61% of the total crypto market 24-hour volume.”
Bitcoin, which has been stuck between $19,000 and $21,000 recently, soared above $22,000 on Monday’s trading. At the time of writing, the world’s largest crypto in terms of market cap traded at 22,402 representing a 5.80 percent increase in the last 24 hours and a 9.61 percent increase in one week.

“Most cryptocurrencies retained their gains over the weekend,” Edul Patel, the CEO of the crypto investing platform Mudrex, said, Financial Express reported. “Despite a slight decline, Bitcoin remained above the US$20,000 level, indicating that the selling volume has come down. BTC will likely trade sideways between US$20,000 and US$21,000 in the coming days.”
