Crypto Market Remains Subdued as Bitcoin Hovers Below $66K
The cryptocurrency market has failed to regain its upward trajectory, with Bitcoin (BTC) struggling to breach the $66,000 mark decisively. The majority of altcoins are also trading in negative territory, with a few notable exceptions.
Bitcoin's Ascent Stalled at $66K
As depicted in the accompanying chart, Bitcoin's bullish momentum has waned, leading to a retracement of over 2% in the past 24 hours. The digital asset is currently hovering around $65,500.
Market sentiment is divided, with some anticipating further declines while others view the correction as a natural adjustment after a prolonged period of upward price action. Meanwhile, spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) inflows have remained negative for the fourth consecutive day.
Ripple Bucks Market Trend
Despite the bearish undertones, Ripple's XRP has defied the market sentiment, surging by approximately 4% over the past day. The coin is currently trading near $0.63, making it one of the best-performing major altcoins alongside Binance Coin (BNB).
Altcoins Witness Mixed Fortunes
Fantom (FTM) has emerged as the top-performing cryptocurrency over the past 24 hours, experiencing a remarkable 12.1% gain. It is followed by Internet Computer (ICP) and Ronin (RON), both of which have appreciated by approximately 10%.
At the opposite end of the spectrum, Bittensor's TAO token has plummeted by 9%, while FLOKI has declined by 8%.
