The cryptocurrency is still fighting to press above an important short-term resistance level.<\/p>\n<p>BTC\u2019s price trades slightly below $74K at the time of this writing, gaining roughly 0.5% over the past 24 hours. It\u2019s evident that buyers are trying to recover some ground following the market-wide pullback that took place last week.<\/p>\n<p>The most recent price action comes as the broader cryptocurrency market stabilizes, with total capitalization hovering around $2.58 trillion, according to CoinGecko. Bitcoin\u2019s dominance remains above 57%. However, the momentum remains fragile, as traders continue to watch macro headlines, with Trump saying they are under no deadline to strike a deal with Iran, meaning uncertainty is likely to continue for the time being.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1438440\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1438440\" style=\"width: 2560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-scaled.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1438440\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-scaled.png\" alt=\"BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1070\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-scaled.png 2560w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-300x125.png 300w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-1024x428.png 1024w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-768x321.png 768w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-1536x642.png 1536w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-2048x856.png 2048w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-90x38.png 90w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-150x63.png 150w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-2000x836.png 2000w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-1600x669.png 1600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-1400x585.png 1400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-1200x502.png 1200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-1000x418.png 1000w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-900x376.png 900w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-800x335.png 800w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-700x293.png 700w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-600x251.png 600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-500x209.png 500w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-400x167.png 400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-200x84.png 200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BTCUSD_2026-05-31_14-36-55-100x42.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1438440\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: TradingView<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Worldcoin (WLD) Leads Altcoin Gainers<\/h2>\n<p>The altcoin market saw mixed results over the past 24 hours, although several large-cap names posted strong daily moves.<\/p>\n<p>Worldcoin (WLD), the Sam Altman-linked project, stole the show after increasing by about 11% to jump around $0.33.
