Bitcoin was stopped once again at the coveted $70,000 resistance yesterday, and the asset slipped by over two grand in the following hours, currently struggling below $68,000.<\/p>\n

Most larger-cap alts have continued their sluggish business week performance, with XRP well below $1.50 and DOGE dipping below $0.10.<\/p>\n

BTC Below $68K Again<\/h2>\n

The primary cryptocurrency reacted well to the price drop on February 6 when it plunged<\/a> to its lowest position since October 2024 at $60,000. After losing $30,000 in just over a week, the asset went on the offensive and almost immediately rocketed to $72,000.<\/p>\n

It faced resistance at that point and spent the following days trading between $68,000 and $72,000. The lower boundary gave in last Friday, but the bulls quickly intercepted the move and didn\u2019t allow further declines.<\/p>\n

Just the opposite; BTC started to recover some ground over the weekend and neared $71,000 on a couple of occasions. It couldn\u2019t continue north, though, and the subsequent rejections pushed<\/a> it south to under $68,000 yesterday after another unsuccessful breakout attempt.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin continues to trade below that level as of press time, with its market cap declining further to $1.355 trillion on CG. Its dominance over the alts has also been hit and is now below 56.5%.<\/p>\n

PI Back in Top 50<\/h2>\n

Ethereum has failed at reclaiming the $2,000 resistance after another minor daily decline. XRP has lost the $1.50 support following a 2.3% drop since yesterday. The OG meme coin is beneath $0.10 as it nearly erased all gains posted during the weekend. SOL, ADA, HYPE, and LINK are also slightly in the red, while BNB and TRX have posted insignificant gains.<\/p>\n

Pi Network\u2019s native token has turned green daily, jumping to almost $0.18. Recall that the asset went through a wild ride<\/a> in the past week, from an all-time low of $0.1312 to a local peak of over $0.20 before it settled now. Nevertheless, it has returned to the top 50 alts by market cap as its own is at $1.6 billion.<\/p>\n

The other big gainers from the top 100 alts are STABLE (15%), M (14%), and NEXO (8%). The total crypto market cap, though, has slipped back down to $2.4 trillion on CG.<\/p>\n
