Bitcoin Surges Past $91,000 as Crypto Market Capitalization Hits Record $3 Trillion

Crypto markets have rebounded strongly in early 2026, pushing the total market capitalization above $3 trillion. Bitcoin (BTC) has reclaimed the key psychological level of $91,000, up 1.4% daily and over 4% in seven days.

Ethereum (ETH) rose around 7% for the week, maintaining support above the $3,000 level, while Solana (SOL) gained approximately 1.6%. Other major cryptocurrencies like XRP, Dogecoin (DOGE), and BNB posted gains between 0.7% and 6.64%, with trading volume nearly doubling.

The rally marks a reversal from late 2025 when crypto prices typically sold off during US trading hours. On-chain data suggests that whale accumulation and long-term holder buying have reduced sell pressure, contributing to the uptrend.
