Just hours before the first of many major macro events scheduled to unfold in the following week or so, the US PPI data, bitcoin\u2019s price has slipped toward $78,000 once again after it was rejected at $80,000 earlier this week.<\/p>\n

The altcoins have followed suit, with some major losses from the likes of BNB, DOGE, XLM, LINK, UNI, CRO, and many others.<\/p>\n

BTC Slips to $78K<\/h2>\n

The primary cryptocurrency had an eventful end to the previous business week, as it had dropped to over $76,800 by Wednesday before the bulls picked up the pace. Instead of dumping further, the asset went on the offensive hard. It skyrocketed by several grand within less than a day and jumped past $82,400 for the first time in well over three months.<\/p>\n

However, it couldn\u2019t maintain its run and quickly declined to $81,000. The US jobs report, which was much stronger than anticipated<\/a>, intensified the selling pressure on Friday, and BTC slipped to $78,800.<\/p>\n

It rebounded over the weekend, and even charged at $80,000 on Monday morning, where it was stopped once again. The subsequent rejection unfolded gradually and culminated on Tuesday with a dip to $77,600. Its rebound<\/a> was halted at $79,600, and BTC now struggles at $78,000 in what is expected to be another eventful end to a business week. It starts<\/a> today with the PPI numbers and, more importantly, continues tomorrow with the CPI data.<\/p>\n

For now, its market cap has calmed at $1.560 trillion, while its dominance over the alts stands at 59% on CMC.<\/p>\n

Alts Bleed Out<\/h2>\n

Ethereum has fared rather well during today\u2019s correction, dipping by just 1.5% to under $2,500. In contrast, BNB has slumped by 5% to under $720, XRP is below $1.40 again, SOL is struggling to maintain the $100 level, while DOGE, XLM, LINK, CRO, MNT, and ONDO have marked major 5%-7% losses.<\/p>\n

PONS has dumped the most from the largest 100 alts, plunging by over 26% to under $0.60. DASH (-14%), LIT (-13%), ARB (-13%), PUMP (-11%), TRUMP (-11%), and UNI (-11%) follow suit.<\/p>\n

The cumulative market cap of all crypto assets has declined by over 2% in the past day, and it\u2019s down to $2.660 trillion on CMC.<\/p>\n
