After intense price volatility at the start of the business week, bitcoin has calmed in the past few days and has remained sideways at around $84,000.<\/p>\n

Although the same can be said about many larger-cap alts, some of the mid-caps have produced impressive gains, such as ENA, CC, SUI, and PUMP.<\/p>\n

BTC Calms at $84K<\/h2>\n

The primary cryptocurrency was stopped at $82,000 last Saturday after the US and Iran resumed strikes against each other. Bitcoin slipped to $80,300 on Sunday but managed to remain above the key $80,000 support. The bulls took complete control of the market on Monday, initiating a $7,000 leg up<\/a> that pushed the asset to its highest price level since late January at $87,000.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin was stopped there at first and quickly retreated to $84,000. It went on the offensive once again a day later, but the $87,300 barrier was too strong. This rejection was a lot more severe, as BTC dropped to $84,000 by Wednesday and to $83,000 on Thursday morning.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, that support held and BTC rebounded to $85,000 on Friday. It was stopped there again and has remained sideways at around $84,000 ever since, but the pressure could intensify<\/a> soon. Its market capitalization has calmed at $1.680 trillion on CMC, but its dominance over the alts has slipped to 58.6%.<\/p>\n

These Alts Dominate<\/h2>\n

In a market in which some altcoins have been stealing the spotlight<\/a>, Ethena\u2019s ENA has risen to the top today with a massive 24% surge. Perhaps the most probable reason is the Binance partnership announced<\/a> yesterday. CC, SUI, and PUMP have rocketed by double digits among the mid-cap alts, followed by AERO and STX.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, ZEC has retreated by over 4% in the past 24 hours and now sits at $1,525. XMR is down to $553 after a 2.6% decline. XRP, HYPE, ETH, and BNB are also slightly in the red, while SOL, LINK, and UNI have posted some gains.<\/p>\n

The cumulative market capitalization of all crypto assets has remained essentially at the same level as yesterday, at $2.880 trillion on CMC.<\/p>\n
