Shivam Thakral of BuyUcoin pointed out that the market now stands at a total value of $87,619, bolstered by the SEC’s decision to drop its appeal against Ripple, potentially facilitating greater investment confidence in the market.

In summary, the cryptocurrency market has experienced varied price movements, with Bitcoin dipping below $88,000 and registering a minor recovery. The Maker (MKR) token stood out as the top gainer amidst the overall market uncertainty, which is reflected in the Fear & Greed Index’s low score.
