Movers & Losers
In the top 10 cryptos, Zcash (ZEC) fell 4.5% to $1,533.86 — a drop of 51.9% from its all-time high hints at investor hesitance over privacy coins amid regulatory worries. Meanwhile, XRP managed a modest weekly gain of 9.8%, though it did slip today by 1.3%, which might indicate some buyer interest lurking.
Levels We’re Watching
For Bitcoin (BTC), it’s traded between $83,230 and $84,662 in the last day. Staying above $84,000 might signal ongoing bullish vibes; dipping below $83,230 could increase selling pressure and signal bearish tendencies instead.
Ethereum (ETH) trading range: $2,669.73 to $2,722.24. Breaking past $2,722 may hint at changing sentiment; dropping under $2,669 suggests more weakness — especially given its distance from all-time highs is still at an eye-opening 45.7%.
Today’s Question
