After several consecutive days of almost constant gains and a $15,000 run higher, bitcoin has finally started to correct and has dropped by over six grand since yesterday\u2019s all-time high.<\/p>\n

The altcoins have followed suit, with substantial price declines from the likes of DOGE, BCH, SOL, SHIB, CRO, APT, and many others.<\/p>\n

BTC Slips Below $117K<\/h2>\n

What a week it has been in the cryptocurrency world. Less than seven days ago, bitcoin\u2019s price was stuck between $105,000 and $110,000 with little to no fluctuations and a lack of a clear future direction. However, the landscape quickly changed on Wednesday evening when BTC pumped above the upper boundary and tapped a new all-time high at $112,000.<\/p>\n

The gains continued in the following couple of days, and BTC peaked at almost $119,000 on Friday. The weekend went mostly quietly, with BTC standing a few grand below its record.<\/p>\n

The bulls went back on the offensive on Sunday evening and especially on Monday, when it surged past $120,000 and tapped a new ATH at just over $123,000<\/a>. This meant that the cryptocurrency had added roughly $15,000 in about five days, and here are some of the possible reasons<\/a> behind that impressive run.<\/p>\n

However, some warning signs<\/a> started to appear. Additionally, Trump gave Russia a 50-day deadline to reach a peace deal with Ukraine, and BTC began losing<\/a> traction.<\/p>\n

Earlier today, the asset fell below $117,000 and has remained there ever since. Its market cap has retreated to $2.320 trillion on CG, and its dominance over the alts is at 62.1%.<\/p>\n

Alts in Retreat<\/h2>\n

Many altcoins experienced exponential gains over the past few days but have slipped on a daily scale. Dogecoin is among the poorest performers since yesterday, having lost almost 7% and trading close to $0.19. However, that could actually be good news<\/a> for the largest meme coin.<\/p>\n

BNB, SOL, HYPE, BCH, SHIB, LINK, and HBAR are also in the red with losses of up to 5.5%. ETH is below $3,000 after a 2% daily decline, while XRP has retreated to $2.9 following a similar decrease.<\/p>\n

The cumulative market cap of all crypto assets has dropped by roughly $150 billion since yesterday\u2019s peak to under $3.750 trillion on CG.<\/p>\n
