Bitcoin Loses $700 Daily

After a few days of stagnant price action, the primary cryptocurrency made a decisive move in the past 24 hours. Bitcoin price went from its daily high of approximately $11,800 to its bottom at $11,100 in just a few hours.

Although BTC recovered from the daily low and now trading beneath the $11,400 support turned resistance, the asset is still down by more than 2% since yesterday. On a broader scale, Bitcoin has lost more than $1,000 since it reached its new yearly high of $12,450 about a week ago.

Interestingly, the support at $11,100, which currently seems to save BTC from further losses, also rescued the asset during the August 11th crash. However, the cryptocurrency breaks below it, BTC will likely have to rely on the psychological line at $11,000, before potentially dipping to the previous 2020 high at $10,500.

Bitcoin dragged most alternative coins down as well, with the entire market cap tanking from $370 billion to $350 billion.

Ethereum couldn’t maintain its position above $400 for long, and the second-largest digital asset dipped to $370 before recovering its bounce. Ripple is down by 3% to below $0.28. Chainlink (-3%) to $14.5, Bitcoin Cash (-4%) to $275, Litecoin (-5%) to $58, BitcoinSV (-4%) to $195, and Cardano’s 8% decline has taken ADA out of the top 10.
