BTC & Altcoins Turbulent, LTC Jumps 5%

Cryptocurrency prices on Monday, February 10, continued showcasing a fluxing action as the current market sentiment remains uncertain. Bitcoin (BTC) price traded near $97K as the week kicked off, whereas Ethereum (ETH), XRP, and Solana (SOL) mimicked a turbulent action intraday. Further, even the meme coin market saw severe dips, in line with the broader crypto market trend, although Litecoin (LTC) defied it to gain 5%.

Here’s a brief report on some of the most trending coins for the day and how their prices are performing.

Cryptocurrency Prices Today: BTC & Altcoins Trade Sluggishly

In the aftermath of global markets taking a severe hit amid Donald Trump’s tariff saga, BTC & altcoins lost notable amounts over the past week. Further, following a broader market slump, the prices are yet to recover and continue to move sluggishly.

The global crypto market cap witnessed a 1.39% decline over the past day and reached $3.13 trillion as of press time. Besides, the total market volume was up by 30.85% from yesterday to $95.16 billion.

BTC Price Near $97K

At the time of reporting, BTC price slipped marginally by 0.2% and was sitting at $97,074. The coin’s intraday low and high were $94,745.26 and $97,325.28, respectively. Notably, Bitcoin’s market dominance saw a 0.28% increase from yesterday, reaching 60.87%. This data suggested that altcoins continue to take further heat amid the broader volatile trend.

ETH price Slips 2%

ETH price witnessed a 2% decline in the past 24 hours and is currently trading at $2,630. The coin’s intraday bottom and peak were $2,530.44 and $2,695.22, respectively. Ethereum plunges alongside other altcoins in tandem with the broader trend.

However, CoinGape reported that long-term prospects for Ethereum remain optimistic amid recent developments. Primarily against the backdrop of historical trends and Hong Kong’s approval of BTC & ETH for immigrant applications, the crypto eyes a bullish run ahead.

XRP Price Dips 4%

Simultaneously, Ripple’s XRP price tanked over 4% in the past 24 hours, reaching $2.39. The coin’s intraday bottom and peak were $2.32 and $2.50, respectively. Despite soaring market optimism amid numerous XRP ETF filings and the XRP DR saga, the asset is yet to see a recovery above $3.

SOL Price Falls 2%

SOL price cracked nearly 2% in the past 24 hours and exchanged hands at $202.70. Its intraday low and high were $194.24 and $207.27, respectively. Solana’s price action follows the broader crypto market trend.

Meme Cryptocurrency Prices Today

Dogecoin (DOGE) price also tanked over 4% from yesterday, reaching $0.2481. Further, even the dog-themed coin Shiba Inu plunged 4% in the past 24 hours, reaching $0.00001573. PEPE & TRUMP meme coins lost 3%-14% in just a day, trading at $0.000009476 and $15.25, respectively.
