The crypto market today continues to show mixed reactions. While some coin prices maintain a rally, others have declined notably over the last day. Meanwhile, some key updates within the last 24 hours might affect the broader outlook in the short term. Particularly, the recent ruling in the Ripple vs SEC case where the status of XRP has been reaffirmed can have a dramatic impact on how cryptocurrencies are classified and the market trajectory moving forward.

As the market continues to recover from the crash that happened on August 5, the general investor’s sentiment depicts “fear” as evident in the crypto fear and greed index data. The global crypto market has declined marginally by 0.68%, now at $2.01 trillion. Let us look at an overview of the market below.

The recent announcement by Metaplanet to secure more Bitcoin signifies bullish and might be a necessary factor to trigger a reversed movement. Meanwhile, Soso Value data shows that Bitcoin ETF now has a positive daily net inflow of $45.14 million as of August 7.

The second-largest cryptocurrency, Ethereum, has taken a rather noticeable nosedive in the last 24 hours. At the time of writing, the price of ETH traded at $2,440 representing a 3.47% decline. As ETH struggles to regain the $2,500 mark, its exchange-traded fund recorded a negative daily net inflow as of August 6. Per Soso Value data, ETH ETF had a -$23.68 million outflow.
