The cryptocurrency market has soared over the past year as investors clamor for bitcoin and push it to new record highs.

Bitcoin jumped 5% on Monday to new record highs above the $72,000 level, and other crypto tokens are rising in concert. 

It's an about-face for the crypto market, which suffered a devastating bear market throughout 2022. But since then, bitcoin has rallied more than 300% from its 2022 low, helping push the total crypto market value to $2.7 trillion.
