Market Overview The cryptocurrency market experienced a mild downturn today, with the total market capitalization hovering around $3.72 trillion, down approximately 1.5% over the past 24 hours. Trading volume stood at about $180 billion, reflecting a slight 4% decrease, amid reduced activity in DeFi (around 13% of total volume) and heavy reliance on stablecoins (nearly 98% of volume).
