Cryptocurrency markets posted a broadly positive but subdued evening session, with most major coins recording modest gains while Cardano bucked the trend to close lower.
Bitcoin edged up to $63,088.96, a gain of 0.18%, while Ethereum edged up to $1,883.40, adding 0.16% as the two largest digital assets by market capitalisation held firm without any dramatic moves.
Mid-cap coins fared slightly better. BNB inched higher to $610.17, up 0.43%, and Solana inched higher to $75.60, gaining 0.36%. Avalanche also inched higher, adding 0.32% to reach $6.49.
XRP was the session's relative outperformer among the gainers, rising 0.53% to reach the symbolic $1.00 level, a figure that will draw attention from traders watching key psychological price points.
On the downside, Cardano fell 1.15% to $0.18, making it the weakest performer of the evening. Dogecoin edged down a marginal 0.14% to $0.07, though the move was negligible in practical terms.
Overall, the session reflected a cautious but marginally constructive mood across digital asset markets, with no single catalyst driving significant directional momentum.
