Litecoin Plunges Hard After LTC ETF Delay, Bitcoin Stands Calm at $94K (Market Watch)

Bitcoin’s price tried to take down the $95,000 resistance but the bears were quick to intercept the move and pushed the asset south by a grand. Many altcoins have turned red over the past day. LTC leads this adverse trend after the US SEC delayed making a decision on one of the ETF applications. BTC Stalls at $94K Bitcoin had a strong week at the end of April and the beginning of May when its price recovered from yet another slip to $93,000 and went on the offensive. That support line has turned out to be crucial for the asset, at least for now, and BTC spiked after last Wednesday’s retest. In a few hours, the primary cryptocurrency jumped by several grand and rose above $97,000. The landscape became even more bullish on Friday when BTC tapped $98,000 for the first time in over two months. As the bulls were preparing for an attempt to take down the coveted $100,000 level, though, the situation changed, and bitcoin started to lose value gradually. The culmination came yesterday and earlier today when BTC dropped toward the aforementioned $93,000 support. It bounced off once again but was stopped at $95,200 and driven south to just over $94,000 as of now. Its market cap has remained sluggish at $1.870 trillion, while its dominance over the alts is close to 62% on CG. BTCUSD.

Although it was no surprise for many, the native token dropped hard and is down by 7% on a daily scale. As of now, LTC remains inches above $80. Granted, most other larger-cap alts are in the red as well. These include XRP, DOGE, ETH, ADA, SUI, LINK, LEO, XLM, AAVE, and APT, with losses of up to 5%. BNB, TAO, and XMR are among the few with minor gains. However, the total crypto market cap has shed another $40 billion and is down to $3.030 trillion on CG. Cryptocurrency Market Overview.
