Tuesday ended on a good note with approximately 95 percent of the coins and tokens ending up in the green zone. The volatility seen was between 2-5 percent on average. It\u2019s too early to call it the calm before the storm, but the upcoming recession is one of the factors affecting the global crypto market. On the brighter side, Bitcoin crossed the $20,000 mark and is expected to go much higher during the week. After the highly talked Ethereum merger, Ethereum-based coins and tokens are holding much better than expectations. The high-trending coin for the upcoming days is expected to be DAO AAVE, as the community is leaning towards the deployment of a fresh v3 version on Ethereum rather than updating the previous one. This might lead the AAVE to have higher volatility.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shivam Thakral, the CEO of BuyUCoin, said, \u201cBitcoin has crossed the $20,000 mark for the first time in October and is currently trading at $20,212 which is a jump of over 8 percent in the past seven days. Ethereum also showed an impressive gain of over 5 percent in the past seven days and is currently hovering around the $1,357 mark. Popular meme coin DOGE has rallied 8 percent with SHIB, MATIC, and SOL witnessing significant growth between 3-4 percent. The overall crypto market surged by 2.42 percent and is inching towards the $1-trillion mark. The United Nations agency warned the Federal Reserve and other central banks over the tightening of monetary policies as it may lead to stagnation and economic downturn. The move by United Nations may help the financial markets and crypto market recover from the current bearish phase. The Bank of England reduced the interest rates recently and it is expected that other central banks around the world will follow the same to support economic growth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Disclaimer:<\/strong> Crypto products and NFTs are unregulated and can be highly risky.
