Shiba Inu, VVV, and PEPE emerged as Sunday’s biggest winners, significantly outperforming most of the broader crypto market.
Bitcoin posted modest gains on Saturday after US President Donald Trump paused planned military strikes on Iran. The move briefly lifted BTC to $64,500 before the asset gave back part of those gains.
While Bitcoin remained relatively stable, meme coins stole the spotlight, with Shiba Inu leading the rally after surging more than 35%. Most major altcoins also traded higher, although their gains were far more moderate.
Bitcoin Maintains $64K Support
Bitcoin started last week under pressure, falling from around $65,000 to $63,750 on Monday. Buyers quickly stepped in to defend that level, helping the cryptocurrency recover by roughly $2,000 before the day ended.
The rally continued on Tuesday as BTC climbed to nearly $67,000 on some exchanges, marking its highest level of the month.
After adding more than $3,000 in just over a day, the asset entered a cooling phase. Selling pressure pushed Bitcoin below $65,000 on Thursday. Another attempt to break higher on Friday stalled at $65,750, with the rejection sending the price down by around $2,000.
Bulls regained control before a deeper decline could develop, allowing Bitcoin to stabilize around the $64,000 level. Sentiment improved on Saturday after Trump instructed the US military to hold off on planned action while diplomatic talks involving Iran and Oman resumed, helping BTC briefly climb to $64,500.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin continues to trade above $64,000. Its market capitalisation has recovered to approximately $1.29 trillion, while its dominance over the altcoin market has climbed to nearly 57%.
Shiba Inu Leads Meme Coin Rally
Shiba Inu delivered one of its strongest performances in months, soaring more than 35% in a single day to reach its highest price in about two months.
PEPE also posted impressive gains, rising nearly 10% over the past 24 hours and more than 26% during the past month. Dogecoin followed with a daily increase of about 5.8%, trading near $0.073.
VVV joined the list of standout performers after climbing roughly 12% to around $14.50, while Avalanche advanced by about 9%.
Elsewhere, gains among the larger cryptocurrencies were more restrained. Ethereum added around 1.5% to trade close to $1,900, XRP climbed back above $1.10, and HYPE gained roughly 2.5%, although it remained below the $60 mark. ZEC and CC also finished the day in positive territory.
The total cryptocurrency market capitalisation edged higher compared with the previous day but remained below the $2.3 trillion level.#crypto#cryptonews https://coinsignals.net https://t.me/coinsignalpublic
