A lot can change in the cryptocurrency markets within the span of the week. This is what happened to bitcoin and most altcoins since last Friday when BTC soared from around $60,000 to over $64,000 on Saturday after the bullish developments on US soil. Namely, Fed Chair Jerome Powell hinted at incoming interest rate cuts, and RFK endorsed pro-crypto presidential candidate Donald Trump and withdrew his campaign.
The weekend for bitcoin was quiet despite the turbulence elsewhere in the crypto market following the arrest of Pavel Durov, the founder and CEO of Telegram. TON slumped by more than 20% in hours after the news broke, but more on that later.
BTC continued its run on Monday morning, soaring past $65,000 for the first time in over three weeks. However, that was short-lived, as the asset’s troubles were just getting started. By Wednesday afternoon, it had lost more than seven grand of value and found itself slipping beneath $58,000 for the first time in weeks.
The bulls tried to recover some ground on Thursday, which resulted in a surge to $61,200, but that was their best shot. BTC has retraced once again and now struggles below $60,000 despite some bullish signs.
Its market capitalization has declined to $1.180 trillion, but its dominance over the alts stands tall at just shy of 54%. Speaking of the alternative coins, most of them are in the red on a weekly scale.
ETH is down by more than 5%, BNB has shed 7.5% of value, and XRP is 6% in the red. Toncoin, as mentioned above, is the biggest weekly loser, having dumped by 17% since last Friday.

BTC: $59,615 (-2.75%) | ETH: $2,520 (-5.5%) | BNB: $535 (-7.5%)
