Market Cap 24h Change: 1.49%

Reason:

The market has been up by 1.49% because of the increasing market optimism over the possibility of a spot Bitcoin ETF approval, as suggested in the articles titled '‘Rumor mill’ goes into overdrive for a spot Bitcoin ETF approval on Friday' and 'Crypto traders gamble $1.5M on Bitcoin ETF approval results'. Moreover, strong financial reports and a more bullish outlook on exchanges such as Coinbase, indicated in 'JPMorgan Analyst Criticizes Coinbase's Lack of Insights Into Its ETF Business' and 'Coinbase Analysts Turn More Bullish on Crypto Exchange After Earnings Beat; Shares Climb' possibly contributed to the market uptick. Additionally, various cryptocurrencies specifically Bitcoin experiencing solid gains revealed in the articles like 'Bitcoin's Latest Rally is Different as BTC Rises Alongside U.S. Dollar and Treasury Yields' and 'Crypto Traders See 20% Chance of Bitcoin Topping $70K by April End: DeFi Options Marketplace Lyra' likely fuelled the overall market sentiment.

Market Cap 24h Change: 4.62%

Reason:

The market has been up by 4.62% because of several key factors indicated in the news articles. Firstly, the expectation of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs being approved, as suggested by 'Ark’s Cathie Wood says SEC probably will only approve BTC and ETH ETFs', is likely contributing to a positive sentiment in the market. Additionally, the inflow into the Bitcoin ETF market as shown in 'Bitcoin ETF market sees $631 million inflow in one day' and the strong performance of Bitcoin going over $50,000 and hitting a market cap of $1 trillion again, as described in 'Bitcoin hits $1 trillion market cap again as $217 million liquidated in 24 hours', are potentially fueling the market surge. Solana passing BNB Chain as the fourth-largest digital asset by market cap, as highlighted in 'Solana surpasses BNB Chain as fourth-largest digital asset by market cap', suggests an increased interest in altcoins likely driving the market gain. Despite these positive indicators, the exact impact of these factors on the overall market sentiment is not completely clear from the articles.
