The total cryptocurrency market capitalization decreased by 2.73% over the past 24 hours, settling at $2.73 trillion. This decline marks a continuation of the recent trend of relatively flat trading days in the broader crypto market.

Market sentiment remained neutral with a Fear & Greed index of 54. Despite the overall market cap decline, the index suggests a balanced sentiment among investors.
