DeFi was up by 0.10 per cent to $21.02 billion, Coinmarketcap.com reported.

Sathvik Vishwanath, Co-Founder & CEO, Unocoin said, "Bitcoin (BTC) remains volatile, trading at $97,604 after a sharp price drop from $101,430 on Dec. 8 to $94,200 on Dec. 9, wiping out $2.9 billion in leveraged positions. Despite this, Bitcoin's derivatives market shows healthier signals, with reduced funding rates and an 8 per cent decline in open interest since Nov. 25. Spot ETFs in the U.S. added $15.2 billion since October, reflecting strong institutional appetite. MicroStrategy, Riot Platforms, and Marathon Digital have also increased holdings. While optimism remains, short-term risks linger amid leverage-based volatility and market uncertainty ahead of Trump’s inauguration."
