The price of Bitcoin ( BTC) remains somewhat volatile after dropping to as low as 14808.10 USDT on OKEx over the past 24 hours. However, the market-leading cryptocurrency is currently up 1.4% and is changing hands at roughly $15,391 per coin, as of press time.
Altcoins have performed well over the past 24 hours. The price of Ether (ETH) is up 2.2% and the price of Chainlink (LINK) is up 6.3%. Cardano’s Ada, meanwhile, is up 4.6%.
The outperformance among altcoins has driven BTC dominance down to 63% and the total cryptocurrency market capitalization up to $453,426,547,004, an increase of 1.5% from this time yesterday, according to CoinGecko.
European stocks exhibited choppiness this morning after yesterday’s positive news relating to COVID-19 vaccine trials sparked stock market rallies around the world. However, coronavirus cases continue to rise in the United States and Europe, with new lockdown restrictions coming into force in places like Hungary and Portugal.
Traders will continue to watch for volatility in the traditional markets, as well as in the cryptocurrency market.
