Cryptocurrency Prices Today June 22: Dogecoin climbs over 6%; Bitcoin, Ether in red
The total volume in DeFi stood at $6.54 billion, 9.28 percent of the total crypto market's 24-hour volume. The volume of all stable coins was $60.96 billion, 86.47 percent of the crypto market's 24-hour volume.
Bitcoin hovered around Rs 16.80 lakh, with a dominance of 43.35 percent. This was a 0.10 percent decrease over the day, data from CoinMarketCap shows.
