However, the hack against Bybit quickly <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/btc-rejected-at-100k-after-1-5b-bybit-hack-sec-to-halt-coinbase-lawsuit-your-weekly-crypto-recap\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">stopped its ascent<\/a>, and the landscape has only worsened since then.<\/p>\n<p>Following a calm weekend, in which the asset spent around $96,500, BTC dropped to $94,000 on Monday despite Strategy\u2019s latest <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/btc-price-keeps-dropping-despite-strategys-latest-2b-bitcoin-purchase\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">multi-billion dollar purchase<\/a>.

As of now, BTC struggles to reclaim the $88,000 level after a rejection at $90,000 minutes ago.<\/p>\n<p>Its market capitalization has plunged by $150 billion daily and is down to $1.750 trillion on CG. The silver lining is the growing dominance over the alts, as the metric has increased to 58.8%.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_384828\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-384828\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/BTCUSD-28.png\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-384828\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/BTCUSD-28.png\" alt=\"BTCUSD.
