Crypto markets edge upward as Bitcoin has a sniff of $41,000

BITCOIN continues to trade above the significant level of $40,000 today, edging into positive territory this morning as it inches towards $41,000. 

As some of the next-gen cryptos follow the market leader into the green, Ethereum appears nonplussed around $2,240. 

Trading volume on exchanges globally is down by more than 30% in the last 24 hours. Lower volumes are often an indication of market consolidation after a period of volatility.
