MYX is the most volatile token today, while PIPPIN has surged by 13%.
Bitcoin’s underwhelming price movements continue as the asset has failed to stage a notable recovery from its dip below $66,000 yesterday and now sits just a grand higher.
Some altcoins have posted more impressive gains over the past day, including HYPE and HBAR, both of which have gained around 5%.
The primary cryptocurrency has been in a knockdown state for weeks. Ever since it was rejected at $90,000 on January 28, the predominant force in the market has been the bears. The culmination of a week-long correction took place last Friday when they drove the asset to its lowest position in well over a year at $60,000.
After such a calamity in which bitcoin lost $30,000 in less than ten days, the bulls finally intervened and staged a quick and impressive rebound to $72,000. BTC tried to take down that level on a couple of occasions by Monday, but it was ultimately stopped.
The latest correction occurred yesterday when bitcoin slipped below $66,000 again. Although it bounced to $68,000 almost immediately, it couldn’t continue higher and now trades around $67,000 once more after a 5% weekly decline.
Its market cap struggles at $1.340 trillion on CG, while its dominance over the alts has dropped further to 56.6%.
Most larger-cap alts are slightly in the green on a daily scale. However, ETH continues to trade well below $2,000, and XRP is beneath $1.40. Only BNB has defended its territory and sits above $600 from the top 5 alts. HYPE and HBAR are today’s top gainers from this cohort of altcoins, posting 5% gains to $30 and $0.093, respectively.
PIPPIN continues to chart notable gains, surging 11% daily and a whopping 190% weekly to almost $0.50. ASTER and VET follow suit. In contrast, MYX has dumped by nearly 40% daily to under $3.3.
The total crypto market cap has remained below $2.4 trillion on CG, even though it has increased slightly ($2o billion or so) since yesterday.
