The crypto market took a surprising turn today, with mixed price movements creating speculation among global investors. Earlier this week, Bitcoin (BTC) was pushing towards the $70,000 mark, but now it seems to be stabilizing at around $66,000. While Bitcoin managed to hold its ground, other major cryptocurrencies like Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and XRP struggled to gain momentum. Interestingly, POPCAT and BEAM defied the market trend, emerging as the day’s top performers.

Bitcoin and Ethereum Prices Today

As of today, Bitcoin has dropped by 0.5% in the last 24 hours, currently trading at $66,960. Its lowest price today was $66,612, while its highest reached $67,801. Despite the dip, Bitcoin’s dominance in the market increased by 0.16%, reaching 57.30%. However, pressure on the price remains high due to a $79.09 million outflow from spot Bitcoin ETFs. According to Whale Alert, large BTC transactions surged in the past 24 hours, keeping investor interest alive.

Despite a positive inflow of $11.94 million into spot Ethereum ETFs, the price continues to reflect the overall downtrend in the market. Currently, Ethereum’s market cap stands at $314.16 billion.
