The crypto market was buoyant on the first day of the new year, with Bitcoin breaking above the $45,000 mark — the first time in the last 20 months. The price surge came as the market warmed up to the possibility that the US securities regulator <a href="https://coingape.com/btc-price-bitcoin-etf-approval/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">could approve</a> a spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) any moment now.&nbsp; 
<a href="https://coingape.com/price/bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bitcoin price</a> rose quickly from the $42,000 level on Jan 1, jumping more than 7% in the last 24 hours to $45,373.

It last changed hands at $2,382, a 4.86% rise from yesterday’s closing price. The 24-hour trading volume also saw a 21% surge to $8.52 billion, with Ether sitting at a total market cap of roughly $286.2 billion. 
Other major tokens, such as Tether (USDT) and Binance Coin (BNB), were in the green zone, as of writing, rising 0.02% each in the last 24 hours. At press time, Tether’s price stood at $1 while BNB’s price stood at $318. 
Bitcoin’s price rally on Jan 1 also fueled a surge in the prices of other altcoins. <a href="https://coingape.com/price/solana/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Solana’s (SOL) price</a> rose 0.24% to $111.49 in the last 24 hours, while XRP’s price appreciated by 0.07% to $0.634. However, Cardano’s (ADA) price was down 0.10% to $0.629 in the past day.
