Bitcoin has remained relatively steady around the $60,000 mark over the weekend, despite renewed conflict in the Middle East and fresh tensions between the United States and Iran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most altcoins posted modest losses over the past 24 hours, with Zcash recording the sharpest decline among larger-cap assets. Aave also faced renewed selling pressure, slipping below $90 after a strong correction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitcoin Stabilizes Around $60K<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The week started positively for Bitcoin as it climbed to $65,500 after reclaiming support near $64,000 over the weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That momentum faded quickly as selling pressure intensified throughout the week. Initially, bears pushed BTC below $62,400, and continued declines eventually dragged the asset to fresh multi-year lows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Wednesday, growing fear surrounding Strategy added further pressure, sending Bitcoin down to $59,000. A brief recovery to $62,000 on Thursday offered some relief, but it was short lived.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BTC then suffered another sharp drop, falling to $58,000, its lowest level since late 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buyers eventually stepped back in at these lower levels, preventing further downside. Since then, Bitcoin has recovered by roughly $2,000 and has traded close to $60,000 for most of the past 36 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This relative stability is notable considering the renewed geopolitical uncertainty, with the United States and Iran exchanging accusations and military actions following the collapse of a ceasefire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitcoin\u2019s market capitalization remains above $1.2 trillion, while its market dominance has climbed back toward 56 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Altcoins Mixed as ZEC and M Slide<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although most altcoins are trading in negative territory today, their losses remain relatively mild compared with the heavy selloff seen earlier in the week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ethereum continues to trade just below $1,600, while XRP is near $1.05. Solana remains above $70, and Hyperliquid is trading around $63.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dogecoin has declined by more than 2 percent, while Zcash posted the steepest loss among larger-cap altcoins, falling to around $385.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aave has also surrendered much of yesterday\u2019s gains and is now back below $90.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, M continues its downward trend, dropping another 13 percent to around $0.68.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the positive side, VELVET surged more than 30 percent, pushing it into the top 100 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. PUMP also posted strong gains with a 15 percent rally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The total cryptocurrency market capitalization has declined by roughly $20 billion over the past day and now sits below $2.16 trillion.#crypto#cryptonews https:\/\/coinsignals.net<\/a> https:\/\/t.me\/coinsignalpublic<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
