SOL leads winners; Bitcoin up 0.89%, Ether, most top 10 cryptos rise

Solana’s SOL token was the day’s biggest gainer in the top 10 cryptocurrencies, rising 4.59% in the 24 hours leading up to 4:30 p.m. in Hong Kong, to US$20. The token rose 10.83% in the past week, rising from its two-month low of US$17.74 on Sept. 9.

In the wider crypto market, Bitcoin rose 0.89% in the past 24 hours to US$26,940. 

“Bitcoin has started showing signs of very short-term recovery. Nonetheless, the ongoing volatility in the crypto market remains a concern for investors, who are still enamored in the larger movements taking place on the stock market,” Lucas Kiely, the chief investment officer of digital asset platform Yield App, told Forkast. 

“The entrance of large institutions into the cryptocurrency market has positive short-term influences on Bitcoin prices. Their participation brings credibility and stability to an otherwise volatile market, potentially attracting more investors,” added Kiely, referring to Standard Chartered launching its crypto custody arm last week.

Ether, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency, also rose 0.49% in afternoon trading to US1,640, bringing its weekly gains to 3.78%.
The total crypto market capitalization over the past 24 hours rose 0.68% to US$1.07 trillion while market volume increased 52.30% to US$29.68 billion, according to CoinMarketCap data.
