Crypto Prices Today: Market Hits The Bears With Pepe Coin, GALA And ASTR Facing Price Correction

The crypto market is trading with mixed sentiments today. Over the weekend, the cryptocurrency market was range-bound and is still moving in the same direction. The fear and greed index for cryptocurrencies also held constant throughout the weekend but declined as soon as the week began. With a score of 35/100, the index is currently in the fear zone.

Bitcoin’s (BTC) price, is still below the $30,000 threshold at $25,698.19 and is down by around 1.13% only in the last day. Other well-known altcoins, Cardano (ADA), Solana (SOL), and Polkadot (DOT) experienced losses on the other side of the border.

Ethereum is trading at $1,621.84,  with a 1% decrease in the last 24 hours. Among other prominent cryptocurrencies, the XRP coin price observed a loss of 0.93%. Solana also faced beatings, with its price decreasing by 2.89%. On the other hand, Polygon (MATIC), which traded on red lines a few days back, is again up by 1.15%  since the last day.  Polkadot coin price saw a decrease of almost 1.10% in one day. 

The realm of meme cryptocurrencies tells the same story. In the past 24 hours, Dogecoin’s price decreased by around 0.21%, while Shiba Inu’s token price is down by almost 3.40%, in the last 24 hours.

The crypto market today is primarily bearish with very few exceptions. The global crypto market cap has decreased vividly since yesterday and now stands at $1.04 trillion. The 24-hour crypto market volume is $24.27 billion, with a more than 15.78% increase.
