Bitcoin\u2019s price actions have calmed once again during the weekend, and the asset has retraced by a grand since the $66,500 peak registered earlier.<\/p>\n

Most altcoins have also corrected on a daily scale, aside from Ripple\u2019s native token, which has soared past $0.62 for the first time since early August.<\/p>\n

BTC Falls Short at $66K<\/h2>\n

Last weekend went in a similar fashion, as the largest digital asset slipped from $64,000 to around $63,000. However, it went on the offensive once again on Monday and jumped past $64,500.<\/p>\n

After a brief retracement, the asset aimed at that level once again but was stopped on Thursday and pushed below $63,000. This is where the bulls really stepped up on the gas pedal and propelled a rally that drove<\/a> bitcoin to $66,500 on Friday morning. This became its highest price tag in about two months.<\/p>\n

BTC has lost some traction since then. It dropped to $66,000 yesterday and has slipped south by another $500 despite the massive inflows<\/a> toward the spot Bitcoin ETFs in the States.<\/p>\n

Still, the asset is up by 4% on a weekly scale. Its market cap has declined slightly to just under $1.3 trillion, but its dominance over the alts is up to 53.9% on CG.<\/p>\n

XRP on the Run<\/h2>\n

Most larger-cap alts have mimicked BTC\u2019s performance in the past 24 hours with minor losses. ETH and BNB have declined by just over 1% to $2,646 and $595, respectively. TON, AVAX, and SHIB have dumped by up to 3% in a day, and so have APT, XMR, STX, KAS, and others.<\/p>\n

Dogecoin is among the few with notable increases on a daily scale. The largest meme coin has gained more than 3% and sits above $0.125 amid speculations<\/a> that it could surge to $0.15 soon.<\/p>\n

Still, XRP has emerged as the top performer since yesterday. The token has soared by 6% and now trades close to $0.63, which is its highest level since August 8.<\/p>\n

Overall, though, the total crypto market cap has seen $30 billion gone overnight and is below $2.4 trillion now.<\/p>\n
