Digital currencies continue their late summer recovery.

After all digital currencies were temporarily only worth $ 1,160 billion in mid-June, it is now back to over $ 2,000 billion.

This is the first time since May of this year that cryptocurrencies are trading above this level again.

At that time it was still more than 2500 billion at times before the crash started.

Bitcoin remains by far the most valuable digital currency.

A Bitcoin cost more than $ 47,000 on Monday afternoon.

The market capitalization was around $ 890 billion.

Ethereum remains the second most valuable currency with a market capitalization of $ 380 billion.

Even if the difference between number 1 and number 2 in the crypto world still seems gigantic, it has decreased significantly.

Bitcoin was still responsible for 67 percent of market capitalization at the beginning of the year, today it is 44 percent.

Ethereum and the other altcoins have now caught up with almost 20 percent.

This is how the alternative digital currencies to Bitcoin are called.
