Bitcoin Hits $106K Before Drop, ETH and XRP Range Sideways

Bitcoin surged as high as $106,000 earlier today as the conflict in the Middle East dies down, but it steadily dropped again. It’s safe to say the cryptocurrency hasn’t found enough liquidity yet. 

At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading around $104,335, up a decent 0.0.3% in the last 24 hours. This trading volume hasn’t seen much activity recently. Only 0.71% is recorded over the same 24-hour period.

Ethereum (ETH) Price has declined below $2500 today following a 0.13% decline over the last 24 hours. It went from an intraday high of $2,565 and slowly dropped to $2,493, according to CoinMarketCap. 

The sentiment from Bitcoin seems to be taking hold on Ethereum as both cryptocurrencies have been declining over the past 7 days. Moreover, ETH has been consolidating sideways between $2.800 and $2.331 over the past month. A breakout might happen soon. Additionally, whale activity has been increasing due to an increase in interest from investors.

XRP price mirrors a similar price action to Ethereum. It’s also ranging sideways on the higher timeframe between $2.332 and $2.069 over the same period. Currently, the cryptocurrency is trading for $2.13, down a modest 0.52% from a daily high of $2.16. While the rest of the major cryptocurrencies are experiencing steady activity in trading, XRP trading volume over the past 24 hours has dropped by 7.31% to $2.01 billion, according to CoinMarketCap.
