BeInCrypto presents our daily morning roundup of crypto news and market changes that you might have missed while you were asleep.
Bitcoin update
BTC had been trading inside a descending parallel channel since April 14. While it initially bounced at the support line of this channel, it proceeded to break down on May 19.
Currently, it’s trading at a horizontal support area found at $39,000.
However, technical indicators are bearish. The Stochastic oscillator has just made a bearish cross and the RSI has fallen below 30. The MACD is also negative and decreasing.
Altcoin movers
The total cryptocurrency market cap tanked to $1.85 trillion one week after hitting an all-time high of $2.53 trillion. Nearly every asset in the top-100 by market cap is in the red — many have made double-digit percentage losses.
Internet Computer (ICP) is doing particularly bad. The token has fallen out of the top-10 and is trading for $148 in a 26% loss on the day. ICP is down more than 56% in the past week to boot.
Only SUSHI, FTM, and MATIC are the only assets in the top-100 that are up on the day. MATIC seems unfazed by the huge market losses — it’s up by over 12% in the last 24 hours and 112% in the past week, making it the highest gainer in both regards.
