Bitcoin\u2019s price rally to and above $98,000 yesterday was short-lived as the asset was rejected and pushed south by about three grand in the following hours.<\/p>\n

The altcoins have suffered even more, as usual, by marking substantial declines over the past day of up to 8% in the case of SUI.<\/p>\n

BTC Stopped at $98K<\/h2>\n

The primary cryptocurrency endured a highly volatile start to the previous business week by charting a few $10K moves<\/a> that sent its price on a real rollercoaster following Trump\u2019s tariffs against China, Mexico, and Canada. The asset calmed in the following days and even tried to reclaim the $100,000 level on Friday but was quickly halted in its tracks.<\/p>\n

The rejections drove it south to $96,000, which is where it spent most of the weekend. The bulls tried to take the upper hand on Monday and Tuesday and pushed bitcoin to a multi-day peak<\/a> of just over $98,000.<\/p>\n

However, the overall bearish sentiment prevailed, and BTC couldn\u2019t breach that level for long. Just the opposite, it started to lose value and dropped to $95,000 later on. As of now, it has added around $1,000 and sits at $96,000, but more volatility is expected later when the US CPI numbers for January are set to be released<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Its market capitalization has declined to $1.910 trillion on CG, while its dominance over the alts has returned to 58.5%.<\/p>\n

Alts Back in Red<\/h2>\n

As it typically happens during similar crashes, the altcoins have it even worse. The biggest daily losers from the larger-cap alts are SUI (-8%), HBAR (-8%), AVAX (-7%), XLM (-6%), LINK (-5.5%), and DOGE (-5%).<\/p>\n

Ethereum, Ripple, Cardano, and Solana are also in the red, but in a slightly less painful manner. In contrast, ENA, TIA, and KAS have plunged by double-digits from the mid-cap alts.<\/p>\n

The cumulative market cap of all crypto assets has seen over $80 billion gone in a day and is well below $3.3 trillion on CG now.<\/p>\n
