Bitcoin Cash also registered a positive increase and was up by around 2% to trade at the $560 level, spurred by the positive momentum that prevailed across the markets.
Ripple also maintained the gains it achieved on Tuesday, where it traded around the $0.36 mark or a 6% increase. Ethereum continued creeping steadily but surely up to the $300 mark, where it is expected to make a breakout as more interest from the market returns.
