On Tuesday, the value of both major cryptocurrencies and crypto-related stocks increased in the wake of inflation data coming in at 6% and plans shared by the United States government to protect citizens from further banking crises in the country. Bitcoin’s price climbed above $26,000, representing an increase of 8% over the previous twenty-four hours, while crypto stocks such as Coinbase and Microstrategy posted significant gains as well.

Overall, the U.S. stock market witnessed a renewed bullish momentum with Dow Jones adding 314 points, the S&P500 gaining by 1.60% and the Nasdaq Composite advancing by 2.10%. Bitcoin and other prominent altcoins also witnessed a massive uptick as the global crypto market cap reached $1.13 trillion which represents a 5.67% increase over the previous day.

Light At The End Of The Tunnel?

Investors grew increasingly optimistic that other banks would not suffer the same fate as Silicon Valley and Signature, which led to a rebound in bank stock prices after they had been pummelling during Monday’s trading session. This optimism led to a rebound in the value of banking stocks, which had fallen sharply earlier in the day. On Sunday, the regulating bodies officially stated that they had devised a strategy to protect the funds deposited in the two banks.

Market gains extended beyond the recovery of the banks. The majority of S&P 500 sectors saw gains, with energy and communication services companies dominating the market. While Bitcoin’s price increase has been an important catalyst for driving up the prices of crypto stocks, the upcoming announcement from the Federal Reserve regarding the increases in interest rates also poses an important indicator for the future price movement of Bitcoin and its effect on the companies that are linked to the world cryptocurrencies.
