The cryptocurrency market received a significant boost from recent news from the Middle East.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin climbed above $78,000, while certain altcoins like MemeCore (M) jumped by double digits over the past day.<\/p>\n

Another Ascent for BTC<\/h2>\n

The performance of the primary cryptocurrency has lately been closely tied to the global geopolitical tension, more specifically, the military conflict between the USA (supported by Israel) and Iran.<\/p>\n

Several hours ago, the American President Donald Trump revealed<\/a> that the ceasefire (which was supposed to end soon and be followed by renewed attacks) will be extended until the Iranian officials can come up with \u201ca unified proposal.\u201d<\/p>\n

The news triggered an evident uptick for BTC, whose valuation soared to roughly $78,500, the highest since the start of February. Currently, it trades at around $78,000 (per TradingView\u2019s data), representing a 2.5% daily increase and a 6% jump over the last week.<\/p>\n

Following the latest pump, BTC\u2019s market capitalization has surpassed $1.56 trillion, while its dominance over altcoins remains largely unchanged at around 57.8%.<\/p>\n

These Alts are the Stars Today<\/h2>\n

The de-escalation news has also been beneficial to the altcoins, many of which have outperformed BTC on a daily scale. The top performer today (April 22) is MemeCore (M), whose price has spiked by 22% and now trades at an all-time high of $4.30. The token is now undoubtedly the second-biggest meme coin, trailing only behind Dogecoin and leaving Shiba Inu far behind.<\/p>\n

Other altcoins that have posted solid gains over the past 24 hours include RAIN (+11%), PENGU (+7%), XMR (+7%), BCH (+6%), and others. On the opposite end of the chart are DEXE, down 11% foon the day, followed by KAS with a 2% decline and HYPE, which slipped by 1.5%.<\/p>\n

The total cryptocurrency market capitalization has risen by 1.6% in the last day to around $2.7 trillion.<\/p>\n
