Cryptocurrency

Cardano

Bitcoin

Shiba Inu

Bitcoin went on a real rollercoaster yesterday by pumping to a local peak of $30,000 before dumping just as hard by $3,000.
Most altcoins followed suit with similar volatility but have now calmed slightly in the red on a daily scale.

The primary cryptocurrency rarely sits quietly in terms of price movements, which is why yesterday&#8217;s rollercoaster was to be expected to an extent. This is because the asset stood in a tight range between $27,000 and $28,000 for several consecutive days.
However, the trend changed when the bulls took charge and pushed BTC north hard. In a matter of a day, it skyrocketed to $30,000, leaving over $100 million in shorts <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/100-million-in-liquidations-as-bitcoin-price-explodes-to-29k/" data-wpel-link="internal">liquidated</a>. However, fake news emerged at this point claiming that wallets connected to the US government and Mt. Gox creditors have started disposing of their bitcoin.
The consequences were felt immediately as BTC <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/bloodbath-200-million-liquidated-in-an-hour-as-bitcoin-btc-plummets-to-27k/" data-wpel-link="internal">slumped</a> by $3,000 to $27,200. As the reports were <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/bitcoin-bounces-back-5-from-false-alarm-panic-dump/" data-wpel-link="internal">refuted</a>, bitcoin went back on the offensive and recovered roughly $2,000.
As of now, the cryptocurrency trades at around $29,000, which is still a minor increase compared to its price 24 hours ago. Its market cap still stands above $560 billion, and its dominance over the alts is close to 47% after gaining over 1% in the past few days.

<h2 id="alts-in-red-now">Alts in Red Now</h2>
As it generally happens when BTC faces extreme volatility, so do the alternative coins. The run-up yesterday drove ETH from $1,800 to almost $2,000, but the subsequent rejection brought it back down to the former. Now that the dust has settled, at least momentarily, the second-largest crypto trades at $1,900.
Cardano is the only larger-cap alt well in the green on a daily scale, having jumped by 3%. In contrast, Binance Coin, Ripple, Dogecoin, Polygon, Solana, Polkadot, Litecoin, and Shiba Inu are with minor losses.
CRO, yesterday&#8217;s top performer following a <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/cro-spikes-13-following-a-partnership-between-amazon-and-cronos/" data-wpel-link="internal">partnership</a> with Amazon, has retraced by over 5% now but still stands above $0.07.
The total crypto market cap now remains at almost $1.2 trillion, despite going up and down by roughly $50 billion.
