Summary:

  • Bitcoin reaches $103,341, near its all-time high of $103,679.

  • Only top 10 cryptocurrency to see a 3% rise in the last week.

  • Dogecoin increases by 2%, currently at $0.403, but down 13% from its recent high.

  • XRP rises nearly 1% to $2.42, recovering from a previous drop below $2.

  • Overall crypto market down 0.3%, with $196 million in liquidations in the last day.

Bitcoin has surged to $103,341, coming within a few hundred dollars of its all-time high of $103,679 set earlier this month. Currently trading at $103,100, Bitcoin is the only top 10 cryptocurrency showing a positive trend over the last week, with an increase of over 3%.

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.

Performance of Other Cryptocurrencies

In addition to Bitcoin, Dogecoin has seen a modest increase of more than 2%, currently priced at $0.403, despite being down 13% over the past week from its three-year high of $0.48. 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.
