Crypto Price News For March 6: Bitcoin Hits $91K, Altcoins Follow
The crypto market is continuing its rise today, with Bitcoin leading the charge after a strong recovery from Monday's losses.
As reported by Coinmarketcap, the global crypto market cap has surged 4.63% to $3.01T. However, the overall market volume has decreased by 16.92%, sitting at $120.95B. Despite the decline in market volume, the broader market performance is up, with the CMC 100 Index showing a 3.96% increase in the past 24 hours.
The rebound comes after a series of favorable developments in the global economy. The delay in auto parts tariffs from Canada and Mexico, along with Germany’s plan to ease debt limits and China’s budget deficit increase, has led to a broader rally.
The anticipation surrounding the White House Crypto Summit on March 7 is adding to the current bullish momentum. The event is set to present plans for a strategic reserve, and U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has shared that Bitcoin will be given particular focus under Trump’s upcoming crypto strategy, which is further driving positive market sentiment.
