The global cryptocurrency market has seen a significant surge, reaching a market cap of $2,46 trillion, a 9,10% jump in just one day. This surge comes on the heels of re-election Donald Trump's election to the US presidency, an event that appears to have injected new optimism into digital asset investors.
Among the highlights, Bitcoin surpassed the $75 mark before beginning a slight correction in gains, stabilizing around $73.800, which still represents a 7% appreciation. Bitcoin's reaction to global political events is nothing new, but the magnitude of the current response reinforces its position as the undisputed leader in the cryptocurrency market.
In addition to Bitcoin, other digital currencies have seen notable gains. Uni swap (UNI), known for its decentralized exchange platform, saw its value soar to $9,15, up an impressive 30,2%. This jump can be attributed to the growing interest in decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms, especially in times of political and economic uncertainty.
On the other hand, memecoins also had their moment in the sun. Goatseus Maximus (GOAT) reached an increase of 41,3%, trading at US$ 0,7398. The Neiro memecoin (NEIRO) has also shown robust performance, rising 35,8% and is now trading at $0,001798. Both coins benefit from the high-risk, high-reward investment culture that tends to gain popularity during bullish market periods.
