The asset has struggled to regain strong upward momentum after rebounding from its early February low near 60,000 dollars. Repeated attempts to break above the 71,000 to 72,000 dollar resistance zone have failed, with sellers continuing to pressure the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the modest rebound, Bitcoin remains more than 1.5 percent lower on the day. Its market capitalization has dropped below 1.34 trillion dollars, and its dominance over the altcoin market has slipped under 56.5 percent, according to CoinGecko.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Altcoins are also trading lower across the board. Ethereum once again fell below the 2,000 dollar level after a brief move above it. XRP and Solana are among the weakest performers among large cap assets, each losing nearly 5 percent. XRP is hovering just above 1.40 dollars, while Solana has declined to around 82 dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other major tokens such as Dogecoin, Cardano, BNB, and Chainlink have also posted losses of up to 4 percent. Meanwhile, Zcash dropped more than 8 percent to around 260 dollars, and tokens such as M and Hash recorded double digit declines exceeding 10 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The total cryptocurrency market capitalization has decreased by roughly 50 billion dollars over the past day, bringing the overall market value down to approximately 2.37 trillion dollars.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin extended its recent weakness, briefly falling below 66,000 dollars before recovering slightly to trade near 67,000 dollars.
