Crypto markets trade around the clock and react quickly to interest rate and inflation data, stock market moves, regulation and flows into exchange-traded funds. Our market coverage explains what moved prices, using exchange data, ETF flow reports and on-chain metrics, rather than only reporting the numbers.
