Bitcoin trades above the 20,000 mark, while Ethereum is a little over $1,450. ApeCoin crypto is the best performer in 24 hours.
On CoinMarketCap, at the time of writing, the global crypto market cap traded at $974.89 billion up by 1.26 over the last day. However, the total crypto market volume performed at $47.15 billion plunging by 26.12% over the last 24 hours.

Last week, the most-awaited Ethereum Merge finally went live. The Merge has completed Ethereum’s transition to proof-of-stake consensus, officially deprecating proof-of-work and reducing energy consumption by ~99.95%.
Henry Elder, head of decentralized finance at Wave Financial said, “Now that the Merge has (very successfully) concluded, we’ve run out of near-term positive catalysts and we’re running into a wall of bearish macro sentiment,” as reported by Bloomberg.
