Published by

Monday’s early trading session saw a decline in the price of Bitcoin, while other prominent cryptocurrencies traded in a range. Since the FTX crisis in November 2022, Bitcoin’s weekly drops have been at their worst. The ongoing legal and regulatory conflicts have an impact on cryptocurrency prices.

Bitcoin’s (BTC) price, was quite bearish today and was still below the $30,000 threshold at $26,079.88,  and down by around 1% since yesterday. Other well-known altcoins, Dogecoin (DOGE), Cardano (ADA), Polkadot (DOT), and Solana (SOL), also experienced losses on the other side of the border.

Solana also faced a reduction, with its price plummeting by 1.37%. On the other hand, Polygon (MATIC), which traded on green lines a few days back, is down by more than 0.24% since the last day.  Polkadot coin price saw a decrease of almost 1% in its price, in one day. 

The realm of meme cryptocurrencies tells the same story. In the past 24 hours, Dogecoin’s price witnessed a decrease of around 0.83%, while Shiba Inu’s token price is down by almost 1.32%, in the last 24 hours.
