Bitcoin Surpasses $68,000 Mark
Bitcoin, the leading cryptocurrency, has shown resilience to recent market fluctuations by bouncing back from a mid-week price drop to under $63,500 and reaching a new high of over $68,000 today.
Altcoins Show Mixed Performance
While Bitcoin has been on the rise, most altcoins have also seen slight gains in value. However, XMR and MKR have experienced a decline of about 3-4% daily.
Weekend Volatility and Price Fluctuations
Last Friday, Bitcoin experienced a surge in price from under $63,500 to $67,000 within hours. This was followed by more volatility over the weekend, triggered by news of US President Joe Biden’s decision not to run for re-election. Despite an initial drop in price, Bitcoin rallied on Sunday and Monday, reaching a 6-week peak of over $68,400.
However, the bullish momentum was short-lived as bears stepped in, causing Bitcoin to lose traction and drop to a weekly low of $63,400 on Thursday.
Recovery and Continued Growth
Despite the setback, Bitcoin saw a significant price increase on Friday, surpassing its previous high and continuing to show signs of growth. As the market remains volatile, investors are closely monitoring Bitcoin’s performance in the coming days.
Bitcoin Holds Strong at $68,000
Despite the increasing flows toward exchanges, Bitcoin has once again reached the $68,000 mark. While the price has slipped a bit recently, it still remains close to this level and has not been able to decisively conquer it. The market cap of Bitcoin has now reached $1.340 trillion, with its dominance over other cryptocurrencies standing at around 53%.
SOL Sees Monthly Peaks
Even though spot Ethereum ETFs have experienced significant outflows in their initial trading days, the price of Ethereum has managed to bounce back after dropping to $3,000 earlier in the week. Currently, ETH is trading close to $3,300. Other cryptocurrencies like BNB, ADA, AVAX, TRX, SHIB, and LINK are also showing slight gains on a daily basis. Solana and Dogecoin have seen even more impressive gains, with Solana reaching a 2-month peak of over $185.
Among the top 36 digital assets, the biggest increases have come from APT, KAS, RNDR, and FIL. On the other hand, XMR and MKR have seen a decrease of 3-4%. Despite these fluctuations, the total crypto market cap has continued to rise.
Cryptocurrency Market Update
Overnight, the cryptocurrency market experienced a significant increase, with gains of about $30 billion. Currently, the total market capitalization is close to $2.550 trillion on CoinGecko.
