 The crypto market rose 3.21% to $2.62 trillion in 24 hours, led by Bitcoin and stronger investor confidence around crypto regulation. The rally was supported by $606.29 million in U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF inflows on August 20, while traders also rotated into higher-risk altcoins. Bitcoin’s move helped lift the broader market, with some correlation to gold as macro factors remained supportive. The market is now watching $2.53 trillion as key support. Holding above that level could keep the rally intact, while a break below it may trigger a pullback. https://coinpedia.org/crypto-live-news/why-is-crypto-going-up/

Bitcoin rose 2.68% to $77,271.75 in 24 hours as improved U.S. liquidity and supportive crypto regulation boosted market sentiment.

U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs added another $606.29 million on August 20, extending the inflow streak and providing additional buying pressure. Bitcoin now faces key support at $75,000, while holding that level could keep the recovery on track toward $79,463. https://coinpedia.org/crypto-live-news/will-bitcoin-continue-to-go-up/

 XRP reserves on Binance, Upbit and Bithumb have fallen by about 240 million XRP since late May and early June, according to CryptoQuant data. Combined reserves now stand at roughly 10.84 billion XRP, down 2.2%. Binance saw the largest decline, with its reserves falling 3.7% to about 2.62 billion XRP. Upbit remains the largest holder with around 6.4 billion XRP, while Upbit and Bithumb together hold about 76% of the tracked reserves. Lower exchange balances can reduce immediately available supply, but they do not by themselves confirm buying or future price gains. https://coinpedia.org/crypto-live-news/xrp-exchange-reserves-fall-by-240m-as-supply-on-exchanges-declines/

Bitcoin spot trading volume on Binance has fallen below $1 billion, marking one of the lowest levels since 2023. The decline highlights a sharp slowdown in market activity compared with March 2024, when daily volumes regularly exceeded $15 billion. Binance accounts for nearly 40% of total crypto trading volume, making the drop notable. Lower volumes suggest weaker investor participation and could also signal reduced volatility as Bitcoin enters a quieter market phase. https://coinpedia.org/crypto-live-news/bitcoin-trading-volume-falls-below-1b-as-market-activity-slows/

Polygon has joined the Bank of England’s Digital Pound Lab alongside NOBO Finance and Dun & Bradstreet to test how stablecoins could work with a digital pound for cross-border payments.
