Crypto Market Soars to $3.87 Trillion as Investor Confidence Hits New Highs
Bullish sentiment sweeps the crypto sphere as total market cap surges past $3.87 trillion—proving once again that digital assets refuse to die quietly.
Mainstream finance still scoffing? Their loss. While traditional markets wrestle with inflation and red tape, crypto's liquidity party rolls on.
Key drivers? Institutional FOMO meets retail resurgence. Bitcoin ETFs now hold more BTC than MicroStrategy (take that, Saylor stans), while Ethereum's Shanghai upgrade finally delivered on its 'ultra-sound' promises.
Watch the alts: Solana's comeback tour and BNB's exchange-driven rally suggest this isn't just a BTC-dominated cycle. Even Dogecoin's barking again—though whether that's a feature or bug remains debatable.
Cynical footnote: Wall Street's 'blockchain not Bitcoin' crowd suspiciously quiet as actual blockchain assets... you know... work.
