It’s been less than a week since the primary cryptocurrency hovered high, hitting its latest ATH record of $ 69,000. As the community wondered if it was worth as much as $ 70,000, the situation changed. Hours later, BTC dropped to $ 63,000, bounced back to $ 65,000, and headed down again the following days. Yesterday, however, it seemed to be much more promising when BTC rose sharply above $ 66,000.

However, even this recovery did not last very long. Over the next few hours, the asset began to lose value rapidly, dropping to just over $ 60,000.

ETH is one of the leaders of the unfavorable trend among altcoins with a massive price drop of almost 10%. As a result, ETH is currently trading below $ 4,300.
