Cryptocurrency Market Update: Bitcoin and Altcoins Experience Volatility
Bitcoin Shows Resilience Amid Market Volatility
Bitcoin faced a turbulent weekend as its price dropped from its recent high of $64,000 to around $60,000. This volatility led to heavy liquidation in the market, with long traders taking the biggest hit. Despite this, Bitcoin managed to rebound and was trading at $60,661 at the time of writing, showing a 0.44% decline in the past 24 hours. The trading volume also surged by 10% to reach $30.32 billion. However, on-chain data indicated a daily outflow of $120.76 million from Bitcoin ETFs on October 10, contributing to the downward pressure on the market.
Ethereum and Top Altcoins See Mixed Movements
While Bitcoin struggled, Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, experienced a slight increase, trading at $2,403 with a 0.86% gain. Other altcoins like Solana, XRP, BNB, and TRX showed varied movements in the market, with some recording gains and others losses. TON, on the other hand, emerged as the top gainer among the top 10 cryptocurrencies, gaining 2.96% to reach $5.19.
