The cryptocurrency sector staged a sharp rebound on Tuesday. Ethereum (ETH) climbed roughly 10% in a day to get back to the $1,550 mark. This follows ETH’s crash to a two-year low of $1,410 just a week earlier, which was a 27% drop within 48 hours.
Data collected by Coinglass suggests that ETH futures with around $370 million in leverage were liquidated, causing buyers to be hesitant to ride the fall over the two-day dip. Bitcoin (BTC) reflected the volatility as well, exhibiting a brief dip past $75,000 only to surge back around to almost $80,000 come Monday evening. This resurgence led other key tokens into a rally, such as XRP (XRP-USD), DOGE-USD, BNB-USD, and Cara’s ADA token, with each increasing up to 10%. This collective surge bumped the crypto marketing cap to its highest since November.
Analysts suggested the recovery was down to programmed factors, attributing Monday’s dip to towers going down over 1.3 billion dollars in positions. Bitcoin’s purpose as digital gold is still in check.
At the same time, Ethereum’s ecosystem shows continuous signs of strength. On April 6, its TVL reached a new record of 30.2 million ETH, reflecting a monthly increase of 22%, surpassing competitors Solana (12%) and BNB Chain (16%). The network’s stability throughout recent volatility is indicative of its strengthening resilience amid market turmoil.
