The global cryptocurrency market recently experienced a significant decline, with data from Santiment indicating that a majority of tokens are currently in the opportunity zone. According to CoinGecko, the global crypto market cap dropped by 4.1% in the last 24 hours, now standing at $2.49 trillion. Despite this, the daily trading volume surged by 16%, reaching $99.1 billion.
Increased trading volume often leads to higher market volatility. Notably, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), the top cryptocurrencies, both saw a decrease of 3.5% and 2.6% respectively. BTC is currently trading at $64,250, while ETH is hovering around $3,150.
Bitcoin ETFs experienced an outflow of $120.6 million in the last day, with the BlackRock IBIT Bitcoin ETF recording a zero inflow day for the first time since its U.S. launch. Additionally, the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) saw a net outflow of $130.4 million on April 24, contributing to the prevailing bearish sentiment in the market.
On a positive note, Santiment’s data reveals that more than 85% of assets listed on the platform are currently in the opportunity zone. The market value to realized value (MVRV) ratio of assets over different time cycles triggered a buy signal, indicating potential investment opportunities.
Despite market dips, the “buy the dip” sentiment has surged on social media platforms, dominating 35.97% of total crypto conversations. Most of this social activity is observed on Reddit and X, with Telegram and Bitcointalk having a smaller share.
Overall, while the market may be experiencing fluctuations, there are opportunities for strategic investments, especially in altcoins. Keeping an eye on market trends and sentiment can help investors make informed decisions during volatile periods.
