As a researcher with experience in the cryptocurrency market, I have witnessed firsthand the wild swings and unpredictability of Bitcoin’s price action. The latest rise to $63,000 was a welcome sight after the dip below $56,500 just a week ago. The bulls put up a strong fight to prevent a break below $60,000, and their efforts paid off as BTC regained traction and reached for new highs.


The value of Bitcoin fluctuated significantly over the past few hours, with a sudden rise approaching $64,000 before being pulled back down to around $63,000 at present.

RNDR’s price continues to climb, registering another significant daily rise and surpassing $11. The majority of other altcoins are also experiencing gains at this time.

BTC Rises to $63K

This past business week was significantly less chaotic than the previous one, which saw Bitcoin plummeting to a two-month low of $56,500. The downturn started to reverse itself towards the end of last week, with notable gains occurring particularly over the weekend. By Sunday, Bitcoin had rebounded and reached nearly $64,000.

At the initial attempt, it fell short of surpassing that threshold, but eventually soared past it and reached an astounding height of $65,500 on Monday. Sadly, it was unable to sustain this momentum and began to decline in value in the subsequent days.

Yesterday marked the peak of the price decline for bitcoin, which dropped to $60,600. However, the bullish sentiment prevailed, preventing further drops below $60,000. Surprisingly, bitcoin rebounded and reached nearly $64,000 this morning, defying the slight withdrawals from US-based spot ETFs.

Currently, Bitcoin is approximately $1,000 lower, hovering around $62,900. The total value of all Bitcoins in circulation amounts to roughly $1.24 trillion. Its market control over alternative cryptocurrencies reaches 50.6% on CoinGecko.

WIF, TON, SOL on the Rise

Despite being adopted by the globe’s largest stablecoin, USDT, a few weeks ago, Toncoin showed poor performance. However, it has experienced a significant turnaround in recent days, surging by 13% and approaching a value of nearly $7.

WIF, the widely recognized meme cryptocurrency, is among the double-digit percentage gainers in the larger altcoin market. A 10% rise has brought its value close to $3.2. Similar growth is observed in IMX (up by 10%), SOL (with a 7.4% increase), KAS (rising by 8.7%), and RNDR (advancing by 6%).

Ether (ETH) has regained the $3,000 mark following a 2% rise, whereas Binance Coin (BNB) hovers slightly below it, barely missing the $600 threshold.

In just one day, the overall value of the cryptocurrency market has risen by approximately $50 billion, bringing it near the $2.45 trillion mark.
