BeInCrypto presents our daily morning roundup of crypto news and market changes that you might have missed while you were asleep.
Bitcoin update
Bitcoin has been moving downward since April 14 when it reached an all-time high price of $64,895.
Currently, it’s returned to the $61,500 zone that it previously broke out from. It’s in the process of validating the level as support.
Despite the ongoing drop, technical indicators are still bullish.
If BTC bounces, the next resistance area would likely be found at $68,724.
Altcoin movers
The crypto market has been shaken up a bit today. After getting kicked out of the top-10 yesterday, Dogecoin (DOGE) surged to a new all-time high of $0.30.
Not only has DOGE reclaimed the top-10, but its 90% pump caused its market cap to swell to over $34 billion. This puts DOGE in eighth place, ahead of Uniswap (UNI) and Litecoin (LTC). It’s the day’s biggest altcoin mover by far.
KuCoin Token (KCS) is today’s biggest loser. KCS has lost 12% in the past 24 hours and is currently trading for $14.54.
