The overall valuation of the crypto sector showed no changes in the last 24 hours and retained its capitalisation at $1.18 trillion (roughly Rs. 96,87,576 crore), as per CoinMarketCap.
The crypto fear and greed index has climbed four points to remain in the greed zone with a score of 59/100.
Meanwhile, some cryptocurrencies did reflect small but significant profits on Tuesday.

Monero, Stellar, Near Protocol, EOS Coin, Iota, Zcash, Dash, and Zilliqua also managed to record profits.
“With Sensex in India recently reaching all-time highs and S&P 500 in the USA reaching a 15-month high, investors’ interest in alternate asset classes is also brewing. While BTC dominance is also consolidating around its two-year high of 51.7 per cent, some altcoins have also started rallying. This includes Bitcoin Cash (BCH) which has registered gains of over 100 per cent in the last seven days,” Shubham Hudda, Senior Manager, CoinSwitch Markets Desk, told Gadgets 360. “It could be attributed to the institutional interest it has amassed after getting listed on Fidelity, Schwab, and Citadel-backed EDX Markets recently,” he added.
