The global crypto market has taken a troubling turn, sending waves of concern among investors. With Bitcoin dropping to the $66,000 mark and Ethereum slipping to nearly $2,400, there’s a noticeable air of panic. Yet, in contrast to major assets, Solana (SOL) and XRP experienced minor upticks, indicating pockets of resilience in the otherwise bearish landscape. At The Bit Journal, we dive into today’s price trends for leading cryptocurrencies and reveal the top gainers and losers among altcoins.
Bitcoin and Ethereum Face Declines Amid Volatile Market Moves
Over the past 24 hours, Bitcoin (BTC) has seen approximately a 1% drop, currently trading at around $67,065. The day’s low was recorded at $65,621, with a peak of $68,722.16. Despite a notable $402.08 million influx into spot Bitcoin ETFs as of October 25, BTC has continued its descent. Interestingly, Bitcoin’s market dominance rose slightly by 0.47%, now at 58.31%, suggesting altcoins have suffered heavier losses.
On the other hand, Ethereum (ETH) witnessed a more significant drop of around 3%, trading at $2,449. ETH reached an intraday low of $2,381.45, while its high was noted at $2,563.73. This decline coincides with a reported $19.16 million outflow from Ethereum ETFs, signaling reduced demand. Vitalik Buterin‘s recent remarks on Ethereum scalability and the role of Helios added some positive sentiment but have yet to curb the downward price pressure.
Solana and XRP: Diverging Paths in the Crypto Storm
Despite broader market trends, Solana (SOL) is trading around $167, with a notable daily low at $160.04 and high at $177.00. While Solana’s price has slipped by roughly 4%, its market cap remains stable at $77.8 billion, showing resilience amidst significant sell-offs. In contrast, XRP has risen by nearly 3% in the past day, trading at $0.5109. XRP’s day low hit $0.4936, and its peak at $0.5289 marks a rare positive trend, offering some optimism to XRP holders in these turbulent times.

For meme coin enthusiasts, today isn’t looking much better. Dogecoin (DOGE) fell by approximately 4%, priced at $0.1337. Meanwhile, Shiba Inu (SHIB) had an upswing, rising by around 6% to trade at $0.00001675. Despite fluctuations, meme coins like PEPE, WIF, and BONK mirrored broader market dips, each down about 8% in the past day.
Top Gainers and Losers of the Day
Among altcoins, Monero (XMR) saw a slight gain of 0.5%, with volatile movements reaching $158.13. Its daily low and high were $155.19 and $159.63, respectively. Another notable performer was XAUt, with a 0.5% uptick, trading at $2,761. In contrast, Wormhole plummeted by 9.5% to $0.22425, and Celestia took a sharp 15% dive, trading at $5.27.
