Recent Volatility
After a week of substantial volatility, Bitcoin initially surpassed the significant $100,000 mark on December 4, only to experience sharp drops shortly after. These fluctuations affected other cryptocurrencies, leading to significant liquidations among traders betting on a continued bull run. However, Bitcoin has now stabilized and is on the verge of testing new records.

On the other hand, XRP has risen nearly 1% in the last 24 hours, priced at $2.42, although it has lost some momentum from its peak of $2.82 earlier this month.
The overall cryptocurrency market has not made significant moves recently, down just 0.3% across the board. This has resulted in relatively modest liquidations, with about $196 million worth of positions wiped out in the past day.
