Bitcoin’s relatively minor volatility sessions continued in the past 24 hours as the asset dipped below $62,000 again before it rebounded by over a grand, only to be halted again.
Most larger-cap alts have remained sluggish on a daily scale, with ETH fighting for $1,750, while XRP is battling the $1.10 level.
BTC Challenges $63K
Following the painful start of the month when BTC slipped below $58,000 for the first time in almost two years, the cryptocurrency tried to stage a notable recovery that drove it to over $60,000 instantly and to $63,000 during the weekend.
The bulls kept pressing the gas pedal, and bitcoin jumped to $64,000 at the start of the business week. However, Strategy’s bigger sale led to an immediate leg down to $61,200, where BTC found some support and rebounded sharply. In the following hours, it flew to $64,600.
That was another short-term rally, though, and it found itself slipping once again on Wednesday. This time, it dropped to $61,600, as mentioned above. It has recovered well over a grand since then, and even though it was stopped at $63,200, it remains close to $63,000 now and slightly in the green on a daily scale.
Its market capitalization has climbed to $1.260 trillion on CG, while its dominance over the altcoins remains stuck at 56.5%.
