Within a day the crypto market capitalization increased by 18 billion — up to $221.8 billion. Of the top 10 cryptocurrencies, the best results is demonstrated by XRP, Stellar and Cardano.
However, analysts say more about "growth in spite of", rather than "growth because of" any factors. So the biggest news of the last days was the theft of $60 million from Japanese stock exchange Zaif and the SEC decision to postpone consideration of the permission to launch bitcoin-ETF.
Usually, the market reacts to such news with a fall but this time the price of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies has not only retained its positions but even gone up. Bitcoin added 4.8% to the price and now trades at around $6,739. The cost of XPR has grown the most (+ 40.4%), the coin is now trading at around $0.565.
Analysts associate such sharp jumps of the course with several factors at once. 5 million XBTUSD market contracts at a price of $6,469.2 were purchased at the BitMEX exchange. Also, contracts for bitcoin-futures on the CBOE stock exchange expired on September 19.
