Current Situation of Bitcoin (BTC)
The cryptocurrency market has become active again since the morning hours due to increasing volatility. The leading cryptocurrency Bitcoin (BTC) quickly rebounded after dropping to around $25,400 during the day and briefly surpassed the $29,900 level, coming close to the $26,000 level.
However, BTC could not sustain its upward movement and started trading again around the $26,690 level. With BTC’s decline, most altcoins in the cryptocurrency market experienced various degrees of losses throughout the day.
The total market capitalization of the cryptocurrency ecosystem has fallen to $1.04 trillion, according to CoinMarketCap (CMC) data. Volatility in the cryptocurrency market has also increased compared to the beginning of the week, with approximately $60 million worth of short and long positions liquidated in the past 24 hours, according to Coinglass data.
