In the past 90 days, the cryptocurrency market has been volatile to say the least. While Bitcoin (BTC) dropped 15%, a small group of tokens managed to come out ahead.

Here are some of the tokens that performed better than Bitcoin (BTC) over the past 90 days:

Tokens That Lost Ground in the Same Time

However, not every coin managed to stay afloat. Some well-known tokens saw their prices decline:

The total crypto market cap stands at $2.7 trillion at the moment, showing a decrease of 3.34% since yesterday. Out of this, Bitcoin contributes $1.63 trillion with its own 3.11% dip in a day.

The CoinMarketCap (CMC) Crypto Fear and Greed Index has dropped to 17, indicating Extreme Fear, compared to 30 a day ago. The CMC Altcoin Season Index, which measures whether altcoins are outperforming Bitcoin, stands at 17 out of 100, suggesting that altcoins are not yet in the lead.

What Events Stirred Up the Market?

A few major events recently impacted the crypto market.

On Sunday, March 2, Donald Trump announced a crypto reserve with Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA), and XRP. Following this news, we saw immediate surges in the prices of these tokens.

Later, on March 6, Trump signed an executive order, which one might expect to keep the market moving upward. However, contrary to expectations, the market began to slide after the signing. Still, there was hope among investors for the upcoming crypto summit.

On March 7, the crypto summit was held, but instead of boosting morale, some unexpected turns of events led to a decline in the market. Since then, a steep crash has been observed, pulling prices down and affecting the overall outlook.

Although Bitcoin had a rough patch in the last 90 days, a few altcoins managed to pull off impressive gains. However, with the market turning downward recently and fear prevailing, it’s clear that investors are concerned about regulations and broader economic pressures.

As developments continue, everyone will be watching to see what happens next with Bitcoin and whether altcoins can maintain their gains or face a broader slump. More updates will be provided as this story unfolds.
