Bitcoin\u2019s recent price renaissance was stopped at $118,000 at the end of the business week, and the asset was pushed south to $115,200 on Saturday morning.<\/p>\n

Most larger-cap alts are slightly in the red on a daily scale, but even more painful declines come from the likes of M and PENGU.<\/p>\n

BTC Slips After Recovery<\/h2>\n

The primary cryptocurrency had an overall positive week<\/a>, in which the US Federal Reserve finally reduced the key interest rates. Leading up to the FOMC meeting that took place on Wednesday, BTC experienced some volatility and went up to $117,200 only to drop below $115,000 before the event.<\/p>\n

However, it had recovered to $116,000 when the US central bank announced<\/a> the cut and remained relatively muted at first. It went on the offensive during the early Thursday morning trading session when it pumped<\/a> to a multi-week peak of $118,000.<\/p>\n

After gaining over seven grand since the previous week\u2019s low, though, came the inevitable rejections that pushed it south hard, especially on Saturday morning. Earlier today, bitcoin slipped to $115,200 before it staged a minor recovery to roughly $116,000 as of now.<\/p>\n

Its market capitalization has remained above the $2.3 trillion mark, while its dominance over the alts is still below 56% on CG.<\/p>\n

These Alts Bleed Out<\/h2>\n

As mentioned above, most larger-cap alts are sitting with losses today. ETH has dumped to well below $4,500, DOGE is down by more than 3%, and LINK has slumped by 5%. XRP fights with the crucial support at $3. SOL, AVAX, and SUI are also in the red.<\/p>\n

Even more painful price drops are evident from M, which has dumped by 16% to $2.2, MYX (-12%), and PENGU (-7%).<\/p>\n

The total crypto market cap has erased over $50 billion since the recent peak and is down to $4.140 trillion on CG.<\/p>\n
