New ATHs for BNB and TRX as BTC Returns to $97K (Market Watch)

Bitcoin faced some extreme volatility yesterday amid the latest developments in South Korea, but it managed to recover its losses and is back to roughly $97,000. The show, though, belongs to a few altcoins once again, such as TRX and BNB, both of which have soared to new all-time highs. BTC Back to $97K After last week’s bounce-off from $91,000, the primary cryptocurrency went on the offensive and shot above $98,000 on Friday. However, the bears came out of the woods again at that point and didn’t allow another attempt at cracking into six-digit price territory. BTC slipped during the weekend and stood within a range between $96,000 and $97,000. Monday began with a brief surge past $98,000, which was met with tons of resistance that drove bitcoin south to under $95,000. Another volatile wave hit the market with a surge to $97,500 and a subsequent rejection to $94,500. A similar scenario repeated yesterday amid the brief martial law in South Korea, and BTC dumped to $93,500 this time, with warnings about an even more severe correction. However, the cryptocurrency headed in the opposite direction and now sits close to $97,000 after recovering over three grand since yesterday’s low. Its market cap has reclaimed the $1.9 trillion line, but its dominance over the alts has dumped again to 51.3% on CG. Bitcoin/Price/Chart 4.12.2024.
