<p>The broader cryptocurrency market showed signs of weakness on Wednesday morning, with the price of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies falling. While Bitcoin retreated from the 21-month high, smaller coins also slipped into the red.</p> 
<p>However, Bitcoin’s recent price surge has triggered calls for a new crypto bull market, buoyed by expectations that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will <a href="https://coingape.com/just-in-report-indicates-sec-might-contact-bitcoin-etf-applicants-early-next-week/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">approve</a> a spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) by Jan 10.</p> 
<p><a href="https://coingape.com/price/bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bitcoin price</a> slid 1.24% over the last 24 hours to $45,155, with its market capitalization standing at $884.96 billion. The 24-hour trading volume, however, jumped nearly 28% to $30.24 billion.</p> 
<p>Beyond Bitcoin, Ethereum — the second largest crypto — fell over 2% to $2,369. At press time, its market capitalization stood at $284.78 billion. Ether’s trading volume over the last 24 hours surged over 37% to $11.17 billion.</p> 
<p>Other tokens were also weak, with <a href="https://coingape.com/price/tether/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tether price</a> down 0.02% and BNB off 0.45%. Solana plunged nearly 6% in the last 24 hours to $108.16 while XRP rose marginally to $0.632. Memecoins also fell, with Dogecoin dropping over 2%, and Shiba Inu sliding over 2.5%.</p> 
<p>The drop in prices of cryptocurrencies was reflected in the global crypto market, which slid nearly 0.46% to $1.74 trillion. However, the fear and greed index level stood at 74, indicating investor sentiment is greed, meaning they’re still keen on buying.</p>
