Crypto Market Overview July 2022

---

After an incredibly challenging Q2/2022, the crypto markets bounced back, with leading crypto assets booking double-digit, month-on-month gains.

Following a mix of bankruptcies and bailouts in the crypto lending sector, digital asset investor sentiment has turned positive again, suggesting that the market may have stomached the fallout of the liquidity crisis in the crypto lending sector.

After successfully defending the $20,000 mark for the last one and a half months, Bitcoin rallied by almost 20%, moving above the $23,000 mark, highlighting the digital currency’s resilience and investor’s faith in the leading crypto asset.

Leading layer-1 blockchains have also seen their tokens rally, with Ethereum’s ETH receiving a boost, rallying over 50% month-on-month, with “The Merge” expected to take place in the coming weeks. The Merge is Ethereum’s long-awaited blockchain upgrade that will complete the chain’s transition from a Proof-of-Work (PoW) to a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) network.
