Bitcoin au-dessus de 10K: Altcoins Stagnent – Aperçu Crypto

Published on August 16-23, 2019 by Cryptovest Staff

Bitcoin (BTC) is now fighting to keep the $10,000 level, with altcoins drifting sideways.

Bitcoin (BTC) crashed though the $10,000 level briefly, but evaded once again the scenario of sinking to a lower valuation. Altcoins stagnated and slid further, still unable to recover ground since the recent 30% downward correction.

Ethereum (ETH) recovered to $191.50, adding 3.95% net. ETH may be getting a boost from USDT coins moving on the Ethereum network.

  • XRP (XRP): Recovered to $0.27, although still bound in its long-term downward slope.
  • Bitcoin Cash (BCH): Traded around $311.83, still keeping its spot as the fourth largest coin by market capitalization.
  • Litecoin (LTC): Slid slightly to $73.31, as the coin’s hashrate falls following the block reward halving. The coin was further pressured by reports of a recent dusting attack, intended to map out the network and link addresses.
  • Binance Coin (BNB): Remained at $27.06, boosted by the upcoming sale of the Perlin token.
  • EOS (EOS): Added about 3% to its price to reach $3.68, though still pressured along with other altcoins.
  • Bitcoin SV (BSV): Slid just 1% to $134.98, remaining within its usual range.
  • Monero (XMR): Inched up to $82.01, though on a rather slim weekly recovery.
  • Stellar (XLM): Inched down to $0.066, stagnating at this level.
  • Unus Sed Leo (LEO): Is down just about 2 cents from last week, standing at $1.19.
  • Cardano (ADA): Added 7% this week, though still showing weakness at $0.049.
  • TRON (TRX): Gained ground to $0.018, still failing to grow to a higher valuation.
  • DASH (DASH): Is also almost unchanged at $93.50, despite an endorsement from Andreas Antonopoulos.
  • Ethereum Classic (ETC): Was the big mover this week, adding 31% to its price in the past days, as the coin announced updates to encourage mining and chart a path different from Ethereum. ETC returned to prices around $7.24.
  • Chainlink (LINK): Lost about 1% to $2.29, slightly boosted by the BTC price move.
  • Tezos (XTZ): Lost another 4.5% this week to $1.13, deflating its gains from the recent Coinbase listing.
  • IOTA (MIOTA): Added 7% this week to $0.26, climbing ahead of the weekend.
  • NEO (NEO): Recovered to $9.93, remaining bound within its relatively low range.
  • Cosmos (ATOM): Shed 6.5% to $2.64, also losing the recent hype.

BTC is once again moving away from a decisive price climb, but survives above $10,000. Altcoins remain stagnant, though separate project show hopes of rallies. ETH is at a crossroads, either surviving with increased strength, or sliding to a much lower valuation.
