Crypto Prices Today: Bitcoin & Pepe Coin Retreat As dYdX Rallies

The crypto prices today displayed a mixed performance, with leading cryptos experiencing minimal fluctuations and remaining near stability, reflecting subdued investor excitement amid a careful assessment of the market’s future potential.
