Although this $4,000 price drop might sound painful, a broader look would show that bitcoin has still added roughly $20,000 since the early April lows. Impressive, right?<\/p>\n<p>Well, the primary cryptocurrency wasn\u2019t done yet, not by a long shot. It <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/btc-price-nears-100k-for-the-first-time-since-february-eth-taps-monthly-peak-market-watch\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">bounced off<\/a> that support line, and it took about a day to fly past the coveted $100,000 line.

It met some resistance there and was pushed south by a few grand, but that was short-lived. As of now, BTC stands well above $103,000 \u2013 a 7% weekly surge and a 26% monthly pump.<\/p>\n<p>Its market capitalization has risen to $2.050 trillion, while its dominance over the alts has taken a hit and is down to 60.5%, as many altcoins have registered mindblowing price increases.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_396057\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-396057\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/BTCUSD-10.png\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-396057\" src=\"http:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/BTCUSD-10.png\" alt=\"BTCUSD.
