📉 Crypto Market Pauses After Recent Bounce: ETH Leads While Alts Lag
The market is consolidating today after the bounce of the past few days. BTC holds high, ETH leads among large-caps, while most altcoins remain weak.
🔹 Market Overview
• Total crypto market cap: $3.13T, -0.7% 24h
• 24h volume: $139B, -11%
• Sentiment: Fear (27/100) but improving
• Leverage slightly down; rotation shifting toward ETH/DeFi
🔹 Top Altcoins Today (ETH, XRP, BNB)
• Ethereum (ETH) — clear relative winner
Strong ETF inflows + the Fusaka upgrade (higher throughput, cheaper L2 fees).
ETH/BTC turning up, signaling rotation from BTC into ETH.
• XRP — price weak despite strong network activity
Flows into XRP products are positive, but in “Bitcoin Season” XRP is often used as liquidity. Rebound may stay slow unless altcoin momentum improves.
• BNB — stable and defensive
Supported by Binance ecosystem fundamentals. Less explosive than high-beta alts, but more resilient.
🔹 Bitcoin (BTC): Key Levels to Watch
Price around $91.5K (-1.3% 24h), dominance 58.7%.
BTC sits above short-term averages but below the 30d and 200d — a rebound inside a broader downtrend.
Key levels:
• Support: $90.9K (Fibo)
• Pivot: $92.9K
• Resistance: $94K–98K (breakout zone)
Momentum improving (MACD positive, RSI ~49), but no clean trend reversal yet. ETF flows mixed: small BTC outflows vs strong ETH inflows.
📊 What This Means
The market is in “stable imbalance mode” — low volatility, slow sentiment recovery, BTC dominance high, and selective rotation into ETH + DeFi.
BTC remains in a 90K–95K consolidation range; upside requires a strong close above 95K–98K.
ETH currently has the best mix of catalysts (upgrade + flows), BNB stays defensive, and XRP is structurally improving but still lagging.
