The total cryptocurrency market capitalization rose 3.38% to $2.69 trillion over a 24-hour period, according to CoinGape. This broad market recovery coincided with the results of the US midterm elections and falling oil prices, which fueled buying momentum across major assets including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP.
