- The collective market cap has surged by 1.72%.
- Dow slipped by 0.15%.
- Crypto prices remain volatile.
Crypto prices have soared over 24 hours despite the rising conflict in the Middle East. However, other markets or stock values ended the last session on a mixed tone, signaling a slight volatility. Some investors have reportedly bought the dip, but it is recommended to exercise caution and do a thorough risk assessment.
Crypto Prices Jump
Crypto prices have shown a daily growth to the moment this article is being drafted. The broader picture of the crypto market underlines a 1.72% rise in the market cap, which is now $2.34 trillion, along with an upward shift in the FGI, which is now 20 points.
Individually, top tokens have taken a bull run during the said timeline. For instance, BTC is up by 1.72% and is trading at $67,980.74. It briefly traded at $68,525.19 before retracing back to a slightly lower value. ETH is up by 0.81% to $1,992.69. The crypto community sighed in relief when the token surpassed $2k for $2,014.93.
For a quick reference, the CMC20 Index is now at $139.92, up by 1.35%.
Where is Volatility?
The ongoing scenario has rather made other markets a bit more volatile. Only Dow slipped by 0.15%. S&P 500 and Nasdaq managed to rise by 0.04% and 0.36%, respectively. Airline stocks remained down, possibly due to several disruptions and cancellations.
Most of the losses were reportedly balanced by gains from the tech & defense sector. Also, AI stocks booked a recovery after landing on declines last month. Nvidia and Microsoft each gained 3% and 1.5%. Across the world, markets sank considerably – like in Europe, Asia, Germany, and France.
Notably, the US Dollar has gained strength on the index. It is up by 0.20%, hovering around 98.744 when the article is being drafted.
Volatility in Crypto Market
The crypto market is still volatile, and the current situation should not be mistaken for a freeway entry into the world of digital assets. BTC has a high volatility of 5.12%, comparatively lower than earlier and still sufficient to make sudden moves in either direction.
Volatility of ETH is on similar lines at around 5.89%. Both tokens have bearish sentiments at the moment despite recovering from earlier declines.
A positive note comes from Spot Bitcoin ETF and Spot Ether ETF. Both recorded inflows on March 02, 2026 – $458.2 million and $38.7 million, applicable in the same order.
