Sunday in the Samsung stealthiness of crypto, Bitcoin (BTC) was at $21,125 when the day started, but was quick to rise to $21,575 by the end of the first quarter (first six hours). From there, “Bit” traded mostly sideways through midday, before rising to $21,650 in the third quarter. It was at this point that the bears would come out of the woodwork, selling the “orange coin” off until it finally found support at $21,590 late in the third, only to climb right back to $21,625 before the quarter was through. After attempting to hold support at $21,600 in the fourth quarter but failing, BTC slipped one final time for the day to $21,580 where it would retire leading into the new work week. BTC is still down across the board on all time frames: 12% for the week, 6% for the month and 57% for the year, with a marketcap of $408 billion. Meanwhile, Bitcoin dominance is 38.5% versus all cryptoassets, after losing .1% in the last 24 hours.
In the world of Ether (ETH) on Sunday, the second-largest crypto by value was trading at $1,570 when the day started, but, like “Bit” brother, got a leg-up early, which, in ETH’s case, was to $1,640 before the first quarter was through. From there, ETH slipped back down to $1,600 in the second, only to trade sideways through midday, before climbing right back up to $1,640, where it came from, in the third. There was more volatility for ETH before the third quarter was through, however, as the asset slipped to $1,590, only to rise back to $1,625 by the end of the quarter. In the final hours, ETH tried to defend support at $1,600 but was not successful, eventually retiring at $1,580 leading into Monday. ETH is now down 12% for the week, up 3% for the month, but down 51% for the year, with a marketcap of $191 billion.
The altcoin sector was back to neutral on Sunday, for the most part, as far as the Top-100 by marketcap were concerned, of which 55% closed the day in green. That said, there were no big winners on this day, but there was one big loser that went down in double-digit percentages, which was Celsius (CEL) losing 13% in the last 24 hours. The total marketcap of all cryptoassets, meanwhile, has come up by 1% to $1.057 trillion.
