Crypto Prices Today: Pepe Coin, ASTR, And Solana Show Upward Price Movements

Published by

The crypto market is giving out mixed signals with some Altcoins showing noteworthy gains and some still trading on the red lines. After the US SEC postponed the decision on the spot Bitcoin ETF for all applicants, including BlackRock, Fidelity, and others until October, Bitcoin is having some difficulty rising beyond the $26,000 level. The Fear And Greed Index is still pointing towards the fear zone at 35/100.

Bitcoin’s (BTC) price, is still below the $30,000 threshold at $25,771.80 and is up by around 0.35% only in the last day. Other well-known altcoins, Cardano (ADA), Solana (SOL), and Polkadot (DOT) also experienced gains on the other side of the border.

Ethereum is trading at $1,632.54,  with a 0.70%% increase in the last 24 hours. Among other prominent cryptocurrencies, the XRP coin price observed a loss of 0.35%. Solana faced the bulls, with its price increasing by 4.52%. On the other hand, Polygon (MATIC), which traded on red lines a few days back, is again up by 1.84%  since the last day.  Polkadot coin price saw an increase of almost 0.33% in one day. 

The realm of meme cryptocurrencies tells the same story. In the past 24 hours, Dogecoin’s price increased by around 1.19%, while Shiba Inu’s token price is down by almost 2.05%, in the last 24 hours.

The crypto market today is showing some price recovery with few exceptions. The global crypto market cap now stands at $1.04 trillion. The 24-hour crypto market volume is $24.13 billion, with a more than 0.33% decrease.

The top 4 cryptos for today are:
