Bitcoin initiated another breakout attempt in the past 12 hours or so, only to be rejected once again at $82,000 and driven south by more than a grand.<\/p>\n

Most larger-cap alts have remained relatively flat on a daily scale, aside from ETH, which is under $2,300 once again. XRP and BNB keep fighting for the fourth spot in terms of market cap.<\/p>\n

BTC Stopped at $82K<\/h2>\n

The previous business week saw a notable price surge from the larger cryptocurrency to a three-month peak of almost $83,000. Thus, the asset had added $8,000 from the previous Wednesday, and it seemed primed for a correction as many analysts warned about the rally\u2019s structure.<\/p>\n

BTC indeed slipped to $79,000 by Friday before the bulls stepped up and didn\u2019t allow another breakdown. Instead, bitcoin started to recover<\/a> some ground and quickly returned to over $80,000 during the weekend.<\/p>\n

More volatility ensued on Monday morning when BTC first dipped to $80,250, before it shot up to $82,500, but it was rejected and dropped by two grand immediately when US President Trump deemed<\/a> Iran\u2019s latest peace proposal \u201ctotally unacceptable.\u201d<\/p>\n

It bounced again yesterday, but this time, its attempt was halted at $82,000. The subsequent rejection brought it south to a familiar territory of under $81,000, where it currently sits. Its market cap remains sideways at $1.620 trillion on CG, while its dominance over the alts is up to 58.3%.<\/p>\n

BUILDon Enters Top 100, PI Exits Top 50<\/h2>\n

Today\u2019s top performer from the largest 100 alts is BUILDon (B). The token is up a mind-blowing 44% to $0.63, making it the 93rd-largest cryptocurrency by market cap. In contrast, PI\u2019s continuous declines have pushed the asset out of the top 50 alts by the same metric, after a 6% weekly decline.<\/p>\n

CRO, STABLE, TON, and CC follow suit in terms of daily gains, while JUP, VVV, and PUMP have declined the most.<\/p>\n

Ethereum has slipped by 2% daily and now trades well below $2,300. XRP, BNB, SOL, and DOGE have posted minor gains, while HYPE, ZEC, and LINK are down by over 1%.<\/p>\n

The total crypto market cap has remained at the same level as yesterday, at around $2.8 trillion on CG.<\/p>\n
