Bitcoin Price Movement
Bitcoin started this week with a price drop to $27,200 on Monday after fake news that Interpol had served Binance CEO CZ with a Red Notice. However, the asset recovered all losses immediately after Zhao refuted the claims and drove it even further north, nearing $29,000 before dipping back down to $28,000 by Wednesday. Yesterday it dipped below that line again, going to a daily low of $27,800 but has since added almost $400 and currently trades above $28,000.
Altcoin Performance
Cardano and Filecoin are performing well in comparison to other top 50 alts today. Trading volumes have decreased over the weekend for most altcoins resulting in less volatility than usual in their prices .
Market Overview
The start of this week saw some massive price fluctuations due to false news regarding Binance CEO CZ which resulted in a dip in Bitcoin’s price. However, since then BTC has slowly been recovering and is now trading just above its original position prior to the dip at around the $28K mark while altcoins Cardano and Filecoin are outperforming other alts in terms of performance today.
Impact of Low Trading Volume
