The global economy is showing signs of recovery as major indices around the world are booming. However, policymakers warn that meeting central banks’ inflation target of around 2% will be challenging. Indermit S. Gill, Senior Vice President and Chief Economist at the World Bank Group, predicts slower growth for advanced and developing economies in 2024 and 2025 compared to pre-COVID levels.
One of the key questions in the financial world right now is whether the rise of cryptocurrencies in 2024 signifies a recovery or a potential bubble. The Crypto Fear & Greed index has been consistently high for over three weeks, indicating a possible market correction. Demand for cryptocurrencies has reached unprecedented levels, with American billionaires like JPMorgan Chase & Co. CEO Jamie Dimon selling off shares to invest in this booming market.
In March 2024, Bitcoin reached a new all-time high, surpassing $73,000 and overtaking silver in market capitalization. While some analysts predict $100,000 as the next milestone, others argue that Bitcoin has not yet reached its true potential. The arrival of a Bitcoin spot ETF has further boosted the market, with inflows reaching $12.1 billion by the end of the first quarter.
Ethereum also saw significant growth in March, with the upcoming Dencun update and increased DeFi activity driving up its price. The future outlook for Ethereum remains positive, especially with the anticipation of an ETH Spot ETF. Meme coins and the DePIN sector experienced a surge in prices, with traders hoping to capitalize on these trends to invest in Bitcoin in the future.
However, not all sectors in the cryptocurrency market saw positive growth in March. NFT sales volume declined, painting a gloomy picture for the overall market. Despite this, Bitcoin NFTs outperformed their Ethereum counterparts, showcasing the resilience of the market.
