Total Crypto Market Cap Falls 14% In Q2

On Tuesday, CoinGecko released its 2024 Q2 Crypto Industry Report. In the report, the crypto tracking website revealed that the total market capitalization declined last quarter.

The total crypto market cap dropped 14.4%, $408.8 billion, in the last three months. The crypto market closed Q2 with a market cap of $2.43 trillion, unable to make new all-time highs (ATH).

Comparatively, the total crypto market cap reached $2.9 trillion in March. During Q1, the market soared 64.5%, doubling Q3 2024’s growth.

In absolute terms, the growth of this quarter (+$1.1 trillion) was almost double that of the previous quarter (+$0.61 trillion). This was largely driven by the approval of US spot Bitcoin ETFs in early January, sending BTC to a new all-time high in March.

Additionally, CoinGecko highlighted that the crypto market cap was outperformed by the S&P 500, which registered a 3.9% increase. As a result, the correlation between the total crypto market cap and the S&P 500 plummeted from 0.84 in Q1 to 0.16 in Q2.

In Q2, crypto volatility remained high, with an annualized volatility of 48.2% for the total crypto market cap. Meanwhile, Bitcoin (BTC) and the S&P 500 saw 48.2% and 12.7% volatility.

Memecoins Continue Leading The Market

Despite the market retrace, Memecoins remain the most popular narrative in Q2. According to CoinGecko’s categories web tracking, the sector dominated the chart with a 14.3% market share.

Last quarter, Memecoins emerged as the most popular and profitable narrative. The sector delivered massive returns in the first quarter of 2024, with an average return of 1,313% across the top tokens.

Tokens like Dogwifhat (WIF) and Book Of Meme (BOME) became market sensations, fueling the memecoin frenzy. These tokens had over 2,000% and 1,000% returns.

This quarter, the market saw a Celebrity memecoin frenzy. Public figures like Iggy Azalea, Caitlyn Jenner, and Andrew Tate joined the industry amid controversial launches, hacks, and scam allegations.

Moreover, the PolitiFi memecoins surged in popularity. Last week, these tokens outperformed most categories in the crypto market following Donald Trump’s failed assassination attempt.

4 out of the top 15 most popular narratives were memecoin-related, with Solana and Base memecoins registering an 8.44% and 4.61% share. Meanwhile, cat-themed tokens overpowered Q1’s reigning champions in the sector, Dog-inspired tokens.

Similarly to Q1, Real World Assets (RWA) and Artificial intelligence (AI) were the second and third most popular sectors. RWA registered an 11.3% market share, while IA tokens saw a 10.9% share of market attention.

Rubmar is a writer and translator who has been a crypto enthusiast for the past four years. Her goal as a writer is to create informative, complete, and easily understandable pieces accessible to those entering the crypto space. After learning about cryptocurrencies in 2019, Rubmar became curious about the world of possibilities the industry offered, quickly learning that financial freedom was at the palm of her hand with the developing technology.

From a young age, Rubmar was curious about how languages work, finding special interest in wordplay and the peculiarities of dialects. Her curiosity grew as she became an avid reader in her teenage years. She explored freedom and new words through her favorite books, which shaped her view of the world. Rubmar acquired the necessary skills for in-depth research and analytical thinking at university, where she studied Literature and Linguistics. Her studies have given her a sharp perspective on several topics and allowed her to turn every stone in her investigations.

In 2019, she first dipped her toes in the crypto industry when a friend introduced her to Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, but it wasn’t until 2020 that she started to dive into the depth of the industry. As Rubmar began to understand the mechanics of the crypto sphere, she saw a new world yet to be explored.

At the beginning of her crypto voyage, she discovered a new system that allowed her to have control over her finances. As a young adult of the 21st century, Rubmar has faced the challenges of the traditional banking system and the restrictions of fiat money.

After the failure of her home country’s economy, the limitations of traditional finances became clear. The bureaucratic, outdated structure made her feel hopeless and powerless amid an aggressive and distorted system created by hyperinflation. However, learning about decentralization and self-custody opened a realm of opportunities. Cryptocurrencies allowed her to experience financial control for the first time and expand her financial education.

Moreover, the peculiar nature of the crypto community sparked Rubmar’s curiosity about the other layers of the industry. As a result, she found a particular interest in discovering the diverse perspectives of investors, market watchers, experts, and developers. Her attempts to better understand the crypto space made her realize the strong links of the community with other industries, enriching her perspective of the sector. As someone who spends most of her day online, Rubmar enjoys finding the points where the crypto world meets with her other passions and hobbies ­–or her favorite memes.

In her free time, she usually finds joy in different art forms. As a child, she enlisted in every extra-curricular activity in her hometown, including music classes, dancing, jewelry making, and the local chorus. Despite her many attempts to learn different instruments, Rubmar only knows how to play the xylophone, which she played for 7 years in her school’s marching band.

She also has a passion for learning new languages and cultures, having set the goal to learn another six languages ­– currently attempting to learn Italian and Korean. Scrapbooking, paper crafting, and bookbinding are her biggest interests outside of work, constantly taking classes and attending workshops to learn new techniques. The rest of her free time is spent stressing over football matches and transfer market news or feeding cats –hers or stray.

In summary, Rubmar seeks to present entertaining and educational pieces to be enjoyed by everybody, aiming to report on the latest news and offer a unique perspective while adding a meme or a pun whenever possible.
