The cryptocurrency market experienced a rebound on Wednesday, with most digital assets registering profits. Bitcoin saw a 1.46 percent price increase on international exchanges, trading at $97,433 (roughly Rs. 84 lakh), according to CoinMarketCap data. Similarly, on Indian exchanges like CoinDCX and CoinSwitch, Bitcoin's price rose by over 1.45 percent, reaching around $103,722 (roughly Rs. 89.6 lakh). Ether followed Bitcoin's trajectory to show signs of price recovery on national as well as international exchanges on Wednesday. The asset grew by 1.32 percent in value on international exchanges, trading at $3,220 (roughly Rs. 2.78 lakh). According to Indian exchanges, ETH is trading at $3,412 (roughly Rs. 2.95 lakh).

Bitcoin is currently marking a strong recovery after the sharp dip experienced over the past few days. The rebound can be attributed to better-than-expected Producer Price Index (PPI) data, which brought renewed optimism to the market. However, all eyes are now on today's Consumer Price Index (CPI) release, which could introduce fresh volatility and potentially shift the market's direction,” the markets desk at CoinSwitch told Gadgets 360, commenting on the market situation.

The valuation of the crypto market rose by 1.98 percent in the last 24 hours. The present market cap of the sector stands at $3.37 trillion (roughly Rs. 2,91,40,305 crore) as per the data by CoinMarketCap.

“The crypto markets have begun the day's trade on a bullish note This could be the result of positive sentiments around the proposed spot ETF, which is expected to attract more than $10 billion (roughly Rs. 86,457 crore) in inflows after approval.
