The combined value of all cryptocurrencies surpassed $4 trillion for the first time on Monday, eclipsing the previous record set on July 23, according to market-price aggregates. The new peak underscores the sector’s recovery from last year’s volatility and positions digital assets alongside the world’s largest publicly traded companies by capitalization. Bitcoin led the advance, climbing to roughly $122,000 and lifting its share of the crypto market to about 59%. Ether followed with a move above $4,300 as traders cited steady institutional inflows and upbeat macroeconomic sentiment for the broad-based gains. At the new milestone, the crypto market is approaching the valuation of chipmaker Nvidia, which is worth about $4.45 trillion. Market watchers noted the latest rally occurred without significant leveraged liquidations, suggesting positioning remains comparatively stable even as prices set fresh highs.
