The crypto prices today were in the red, as the investors seem to be closing their positions on the major cryptocurrencies. Meanwhile, the decline in the market started on November 16, after news broke out that BlackRock officially filed for Ethereum ETF with the SEC.

Although the news should have bolstered gains in the market, the situation was somewhat different following the news. The investors seem to have predicted a correction in the market, which triggered a sell-off in the digital asset space, as evidenced by the price performance of the cryptos.

However, the situation was somewhat different for the meme coin, Dogecoin. The Dogecoin price has added 6.48% during the writing and traded at $0.08161, while its trading volume rocketed 224.27% to $1.73 billion. In contrast, the Shiba Inu price was down 1.61% to $0.000008615, while its volume rose 67.44% to $278.26 million.

Meanwhile, the losses in the major crypto prices today have wiped off gains from the broader market on Friday. As of writing, the global cryptocurrency market cap was down 2.48% to $1.39 trillion, and its overall market volume was up 3.25% over the last 24 hours to $71.17 billion.
