Interestingly, there\u2019s one exception \u2013 Toncoin.<\/p>\n<h2>BTC\u2019s Nosedive Continues<\/h2>\n<p>There\u2019s not a lot of positive things we can say about BTC\u2019s price movements for the past week or ten days. The asset was last above $60,000 on August 29, when it spiked to $61,200. However, it couldn\u2019t maintain its run and was quickly driven to below that coveted round-numbered level.<\/p>\n<p>After dropping to $57,000 in early September, the bulls initiated a minor leg-up that resulted in bitcoin <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-btc-price-taps-59k-dogwifhat-wif-skyrockets-12-daily-market-watch\/\">tapping<\/a> $59,700, but there wasn\u2019t much firepower to bring it any further. Just the opposite, it started to lose value again.<\/p>\n<p>Another minor increase transpired yesterday when bitcoin jumped to $58,500. The scenario <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-price-unable-to-recover-but-these-two-altcoins-soar-today-market-watch\/\">repeated<\/a>, and the bears resumed control of the market.<\/p>\n<p>The pressure they inserted led to a decline that drove BTC to a monthly low of $55,300 earlier today. Despite recovering some ground since then, the cryptocurrency is still below $56,000 and is down by 2.5% on the day. Its market cap has tumbled to $1.1 trillion, and its dominance over the alts is below 54%.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/BTCUSD-5.png\"><\/a>Bitcoin\/Price\/Chart 06.09.2024. Source: TradingView<\/p>\n<h2>Alts in Red<\/h2>\n<p>The alternative coins have mimicked BTC\u2019s performance to a large extent lately. This means that they have posted price losses in the past day as well.<\/p>\n<p>ETH\u2019s daily drop is similar to that of BTC and the second-largest cryptocurrency has tanked to $2,350. Solana and Ripple have charted even more painful declines of 3.5% to 4%. As a result, SOL is below $130, while XRP struggles at $0.53<\/p>\n<p>The rest of the larger-cap alts are in a similar situation, with FET, NEAR, and TAO losing the most value. In contrast, TON is the only one in the green, posting a 3% daily increase.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, the total crypto market cap has slumped by another $50 billion overnight and is down to $2.050 trillion on CG.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Screenshot-2024-09-06-114542.png\"><\/a>Cryptocurrency Market Overview.
