All of the top 20 cryptocurrencies are trading in the red with absolutely no exception. Regardless of whether it’s against the USD or against Bitcoin, altcoins are bleeding. TRON (TRX) has lost the most over the past 24 hours as it’s down by 6.63%, followed by Binance Coin (BNB) with 6.52% and Cardano with 6.06%. On the contrary, Tezos is the best-performing altcoin amid the recent declines as it’s down by only 0.02% on the day.

XTZ’s performance in November has been nothing short of impressive, as the cryptocurrency is up more than 33% since the beginning of the month. The spike came as Coinbase, the largest US-based cryptocurrency exchange, announced that users will be able to stake XTZ and receive rewards for it.

This latest retrace comes as Bitcoin broke below the support at $8,000 which has been holding it for the past 3 days and it currently hovers around $7,900.

As CryptoPotato reported, the next important support lies in the area between $7,700 and $7,800 and if it fails this could open up the way for a further drop to $7,400. Interestingly enough, Bitcoin’s dominance has increased amid the most recent declines and it currently stands at 66.2%, meaning that altcoins weren’t able to capitalize on the drop.
