“After a minor blip over the past 24 hours, we saw the cryptocurrency market recover rapidly. The largest crypto currency by market capitalisation, Bitcoin, regained the $61,000 mark. The game-changer over the past 24 hours was Dogecoin, which shot up more than 35 per cent. The other meme coin, Shiba Inu seemed to cool off after rising to the spot of the eighth largest cryptocurrency,” said Edul Patel, CEO and co-founder of Mudrex, a global crypto trading platform.
