After a week of all-time-highs, Bitcoin’s momentum has tapered off at around $47,000. Meanwhile, altcoins continue to rise.
Bitcoin’s price today hit $47,093, down 0.41% from yesterday’s $47,286 and up 18.59% from last week’s $38,338. Its price has jumped earlier this week to an all-time high of $48,000 after Tesla announced its $1.5 billion investment in Bitcoin, followed by a series of confidence-boosting developments. Most notably, America’s oldest bank, BNY Mellon, announced that it will support Bitcoin.
The price of Ethereum, the largest alternative crypto to Bitcoin, today hit $1,810, a jump by 2.94% from yesterday’s $1,756. Ethereum’s weekly price change is an increase of 6.50%.
In the 24 hours, Cardano (ADA) fell 2.14% to $0.9, XRP fell 0.64% to $0.58, Polkadot (DOT) increased 12.18% to $28.50.
But these daily performances do not reflect the overall weekly performance of the altcoin market; all top altcoins jumped considerably over the past week: ADA by 63%, XRP by 34%, and DOT by 39%.
Others in the top ten also performed swimmingly. Binance Coin (BNB) increased by 0.60% in the past 24 hours, but 70% in the past week to $127.10, making it this week’s best performer by percentage increase.
Stellar (XLM) increased by 14.21% in the past 24 hours and 54.70% in the past week. Its current price is $0.52.
Meanwhile, Litecoin (LTC) increased by 5.20% in the past day and 22.76% in the past week to $195, while Chainlink (LINK) surged 6.37% in the past day and 16.67% in the past week to $29.55.
Dogecoin (DOGE), the 12th largest cryptocurrency with a market cap of $8.8 billion, dropped by 0.49% in the past 24 hours and jumped 40.15% in the past week to its current price of $0.06. Dogecoin surged after concentrated efforts from its investors pumped up the price. Celebrity interest helped spread its word, most notably one-time “Dogecoin CEO” and recent Bitcoin bull, Elon Musk.

Chinese New Year, a sixteen-day holiday period that started yesterday, is normally a time when the cryptocurrency market experiences price drops as Chinese investors dump their coins. However, as analysts told Decrypt last week, that hasn’t happened this year. Western institutional investors now dominate the cryptocurrency market, they explained.

Why did Joseph Maldonado-Passage, better known as Joe Exotic from the viral Netflix docuseries “Tiger King,” debut a meme coin on Solana from prison earlier this week? “I’m knee-deep in lawyer bills,” he told Decrypt in an interview, claiming the endeavor will also benefit children through donations to a nonprofit called Operation Smile. The 62-year-old, who has lived behind bars for seven years, didn’t launch the meme coin himself. Instead, he said his lawyers helped him get “Official Tiger Kin...

The coin's price was recently at $82,480 per coin, according to CoinGecko, after hitting a nearly three-week high of $88,474 on Monday. As of this writing, Bitcoin is now down by almost 2% on the week. Bitcoin's dip came after the U.S. Commerce Department reported Friday that the core Personal Consumption Expenditures Pr...
A high-ranking official in Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's administration declared Tuesday that a potential strategic Bitcoin reserve would be "determinant for our prosperity" and "in the (country’s) public interest."
