Bitcoin\u2019s price volatility continued in the past 24 hours as the asset slipped below $66,200 at one point, only to rebound and aim at $70,000 once again.<\/p>\n

Most altcoins are slightly in the green as well on a daily scale, with ETH challenging $2,000 and BNB tapping $640. SOL is up by over 2% daily.<\/p>\n

BTC Aims at $70K Again<\/h2>\n

It was last Thursday when bitcoin jumped to $70,000 for the first time in over a week, only to be halted and driven south hard. It remained around $68,000 by Friday when it suddenly dumped to under $65,000. Although it had rebounded to $66,000 by Saturday morning, it quickly plunged to $63,000 after the attacks in the Middle East began.<\/p>\n

Instead of dumping further as the geopolitical tension began, BTC rebounded strongly to over $68,000 after reports emerged<\/a> that Iran\u2019s Supreme Leader was killed in the attacks. However, it couldn\u2019t go any higher and dropped to $65,000 by Monday.<\/p>\n

Then came an unexpected and rare hourly rally, in which the asset jumped<\/a> to over $70,000 again in minutes. Another rejection followed<\/a>, which pushed BTC down to $66,200. More volatility ensued, and the cryptocurrency now trades just under $70,000 again, but some analysts believe<\/a> there\u2019s a major obstacle in its way.<\/p>\n

Its market cap has climbed to almost $1.4 trillion, while its dominance over the alts is up to 57% on CG.<\/p>\n

ETH Challenges $2K<\/h2>\n

Most larger-cap alts have posted more modest gains than BTC in the past day. ETH has climbed to just over $2,000 as of press time, while BNB is up to $640 and remains above XRP in terms of market cap positioning. SOL and BCH are up by 2%, while DOGE, ADA, HYPE, and CC have lost somewhere between 1-3% daily.<\/p>\n

AAVE has lost the most value from the larger-cap alts, dropping by 6% to $113. In contrast, XDC has rocketed by 9% and now trades at $0.035. ICP and JUP follow suit.<\/p>\n

The cumulative market cap of all crypto assets has gained nearly $100 billion since yesterday\u2019s low and is up to $2.440 trillion on CG.<\/p>\n
