The global crypto market cap sits near $3.06T, with roughly $137.6B in 24h trading volume. Bitcoin dominance is about 57.46%, while stablecoins account for about $313B, or roughly 10.26% of total market cap.
The tape looks mildly risk-on inside the large caps. Bitcoin is up on the day, and several majors are stronger than BTC over 24h. Dominance staying elevated suggests capital remains concentrated in Bitcoin, even as selective altcoins catch bids.
| Asset | Price | 24h | 7d | 24h Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BTC | $87,649.93 | +0.7% | +5.5% | $86,126 – $88,801 |
| ETH | $2,885.50 | +1.6% | +10.0% | $2,787 – $2,942 |
| XRP | $1.88 | +0.4% | +5.0% | $1.81 – $1.91 |
| BNB | $869.67 | +1.0% | +6.1% | $856 – $882 |
| SOL | $122.09 | +3.3% | +8.8% | $118 – $127 |
| ADA | $0.3453 | +3.1% | +5.1% | $0.333 – $0.359 |
Prices and percentage moves are taken from the live market panels on CoinGecko for Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, BNB, Solana, and Cardano.
Bitcoin trades around $87.6K, sitting inside a defined 24h range ($86.1K to $88.8K). The 7d move is positive, but the market still looks like it is respecting nearby resistance.
Key read-through: dominance near 57.5% signals Bitcoin continues to act as the primary liquidity magnet. In practical terms, that often means altcoin upside can be choppy unless BTC stays stable or breaks higher.
Support sits in the mid-$86K zone (near the lower end of the 24h range). Resistance is near $88.8K (upper end of the 24h range). A clean reclaim of the recent 7d highs (around $93K on CoinGecko’s 7d range) would likely be interpreted as a renewed trend push.
Ethereum trades around $2.89K and is outperforming Bitcoin over the past week (+10.0% vs +5.5%). CoinGecko’s panel also shows ETH priced near 0.0329 BTC, hinting at modest relative strength versus BTC.
When ETH leads on a 7d basis, the market often starts testing a broader risk curve. That does not guarantee an “altseason,” but it can be a prerequisite for it.
The current 24h range frames the near-term map: support near $2.79K and resistance near $2.94K. A sustained push above the top of that band would likely put psychological levels like $3K in focus.
XRP Ledger trades around $1.88 with a tight 24h range ($1.81 to $1.91) and a steady 7d climb. The move looks orderly rather than explosive.
XRP tends to react strongly when broad sentiment shifts. In a mixed market, it often behaves like a range asset with occasional sharp expansions.
BNB Chain trades near $869 and remains constructive on 7d (+6.1%). The 24h range ($856 to $882) suggests buyers are active, but sellers still defend the upper band.
BNB is often a “risk barometer” for the Binance-linked ecosystem. In periods of smooth liquidity, it can trend with fewer air pockets than smaller alts.
Solana trades around $122 and is one of the strongest large caps in the 24h window (+3.3%). The 7d move (+8.8%) reinforces that SOL remains a momentum leader.
SOL strength typically shows up when traders are comfortable taking higher beta exposure. If BTC stays steady, SOL often attracts incremental rotation.
Cardano trades near $0.345 and is up over 24h (+3.1%). The 24h range ($0.333 to $0.359) shows volatility is still contained.
ADA tends to rally in spurts when risk appetite rises. Follow-through usually requires broader market participation, not just a single-day bid.
The lists below are taken from CoinGecko’s gainers and losers page for the 24-hour window, with the site’s noted minimum 24h volume threshold.
| Coin | Price | 24h Move |
|---|---|---|
| Bitlayer (BTR) | $0.1084 | +61.8% |
| GXChain (GXC) | $0.9214 | +59.8% |
| River (RIVER) | $85.47 | +40.0% |
| Acurast (ACU) | $0.2273 | +33.4% |
| Surge (SURGE) | $0.1078 | +30.6% |
| Coin | Price | 24h Move |
|---|---|---|
| Nomina (NOM) | $0.01161 | -32.6% |
| Enso (ENSO) | $1.41 | -27.6% |
| Nietzschean Penguin (PENGUIN) | $0.09071 | -25.1% |
| Fluid (FLUID) | $2.79 | -24.4% |
| Caldera (ERA) | $0.2099 | -24.0% |
If Bitcoin holds its lower-band support and keeps pressing the top of the 24h range, large caps often remain supported and rotation can continue into higher beta names. If Bitcoin breaks down through the range floor, markets often de-risk quickly and recent winners can mean-revert.
In the short run, two metrics tend to frame the story: Bitcoin dominance and Ethereum’s relative strength versus BTC. A steady BTC with a softening dominance number often aligns with broader altcoin participation. The opposite setup usually keeps the market selective.
The market reads as cautiously constructive. Bitcoin remains the center of gravity, but Ethereum, Solana, and Cardano are showing stronger 24h momentum. Breadth is still mixed, with sharp dispersion between the top daily gainers and losers. The next directional push likely depends on whether BTC resolves its current range higher or fails back toward support.
