Bitcoin\u2019s weekend sluggishness continues as the asset has barely moved from $83,000 over the past 36 hours, but more volatility is likely to hit later today or tomorrow morning.<\/p>\n

The larger-cap alts have also failed to produce any significant moves in either direction in the past day, but there\u2019s a new rockstar among the mid caps.<\/p>\n

BTC Calms at $83K<\/h2>\n

The primary cryptocurrency started October with a bang, surging to over $87,000 on the second day of the month. However, the bears quickly interfered and pushed it south to under $84,000 on the same day. It rebounded last weekend toward $85,000 before it tried to break out again on Monday morning, only to be stopped at $86,600 this time.<\/p>\n

The following legs down were a lot more painful. At first, bitcoin crashed to $83,600. It bounced to $84,400 before the bears took complete control of the market and drove it south<\/a> to $82,400 on Wednesday and to a multi-week low of $80,400 on Thursday. After losing nearly $7,000 in just a few days, the cryptocurrency was due for a rebound, which took place on Friday.<\/p>\n

However, the bulls\u2019 attempt was stopped at $83,500. Since then, the asset has been trading sideways<\/a> at around $83,000 without any major moves. More volatility is likely to ensue later tonight or tomorrow morning after the new attacks against Saudi Arabia and President Trump\u2019s hint<\/a> that the US could join the fight.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin\u2019s market cap remains at $1.660 trillion, while its dominance over the alts is at 59.5% on CMC.<\/p>\n

3 Double-Digit Gainers<\/h2>\n

As mentioned above, there\u2019s little to no movement among the larger-cap alts. ETH is close to $2,500, XRP has dipped below $1.40, while ZEC and HYPE are up by around 1%. BNB, SOL, TRX, DOGE, XMR, LINK, and ADA are slightly in the red.<\/p>\n

At the same time, STRK has stolen the show today, skyrocketing by over 53% to almost $0.11. The asset is up by over 105% in the past week. The other double-digit gainers are TIA (21%) and AERO (15%). The former trades at close to $0.60, while the latter is up to $1.<\/p>\n

The cumulative market cap of all crypto assets stands still at $2.8 trillion on CMC.<\/p>\n
