Ethereum is hovering around 2000 dollars, BNB is trading near 640 dollars, and Solana has gained more than 2 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bitcoin Moves Toward 70000 Once More<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last Thursday, Bitcoin climbed to 70000 dollars for the first time in more than a week but quickly faced selling pressure and turned lower. By Friday it was trading near 68000 dollars before sliding under 65000. A modest recovery to 66000 followed on Saturday morning, yet renewed tensions in the Middle East pushed the price down to 63000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of extending losses as geopolitical uncertainty intensified, Bitcoin rebounded strongly to above 68000 after reports surfaced that Iran\u2019s Supreme Leader had been killed. The rally stalled, however, and the price slipped back to 65000 by Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A sudden surge then lifted the asset past 70000 within minutes, an uncommon hourly move. That breakout was rejected, sending Bitcoin back to 66200. Continued swings have since carried it close to 70000 again, although some analysts warn that significant resistance remains ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bitcoin\u2019s market capitalization has risen to nearly 1.4 trillion dollars, and its dominance over alternative coins has increased to 57 percent, according to CoinGecko.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ethereum Tests 2000 as XDC Leads Gainers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among larger cryptocurrencies, most gains have been more moderate compared with Bitcoin. Ethereum has climbed slightly above 2000 dollars. BNB is holding around 640 dollars and maintains a higher market capitalization ranking than XRP. Solana and Bitcoin Cash are both up about 2 percent. Meanwhile, Dogecoin, Cardano, Hedera, and Celsius have posted daily declines between 1 and 3 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aave has recorded the largest drop among major tokens, falling 6 percent to 113 dollars. In contrast, XDC Network has surged 9 percent to trade near 0.035 dollars, with Internet Computer and Jupiter also posting strong gains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The total cryptocurrency market capitalization has added nearly 100 billion dollars since yesterday\u2019s low and now stands at approximately 2.44 trillion dollars, based on data from CoinGecko.#cryptonews  <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/coinsignalpublic\">https:\/\/t.me\/coinsignalpublic<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/coinsignals.net\">https:\/\/coinsignals.net<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin experienced another volatile 24 hour stretch, briefly falling below 66200 dollars before rebounding and moving back toward the 70000 dollar level.
