Meist gelesene Nachrichten
Bitcoin just can’t catch a break these days as another leg down pushed it south to well below $62,000 earlier today, and the subsequent recovery attempt was halted in its tracks. The altcoins have bled out again, heavily, and the total crypto market cap has plunged toward $2.250 trillion. BTC Sees New 4-Month Low Although bitcoin’s troubles began at the end of May, they actually intensified substantially as the new month began. In fact, the asset stood above $73,000 on June 1, but the bears were quick to resume control of the market and initiate several consecutive leg downs. As reported earlier this week, BTC first lost the $70,000 support level, but that was just the beginning. It kept dropping in value and slipped below $66,000 yesterday. After a brief but unsuccessful bounce to $67,000, the cryptocurrency went downhill again and dumped to just over $61,000 earlier today for the first time since the February crash. After leaving more than $1.6 billion in liquidations across the entire market, BTC rebounded slightly to $64,000, where it faced another rejection. As of press time, the asset trades below $63,000, showing a 14% decline on a weekly scale. Its market cap has tumbled to $1.260 trillion on CG, and its dominance over the alts is down by over 2% in the past week to 55.6%. BTCUSD June 4.

Ethereum is down to $1,750, hitting a 14-month low earlier today. SOL has plunged below $70 after a 9% daily decline. XRP dropped below $1.15 earlier today before rebounding very slightly. ADA slumped below $0.19 for the first time in years. BNB is below $600 after a 7% decline. ZEC, DOGE, LINK, AVAX, and many others are deep in the red as well. WLD is among the few exceptions with a notable 11% surge during this time of distress. NEAR, TON, and RENDER have dumped the most, losing up to 18% of value daily. The total crypto market cap has erased another $140 billion in just a day and is below $2.270 trillion as of press time. Cryptocurrency Market Overview June 4.
