Altcoin Market: Ethereum Stable, Worldcoin Leads Gains
Ethereum (ETH) demonstrated relative strength, experiencing only a slight decline of 1.12%, bringing its value to $2,594.10. The stability of Ethereum, particularly compared to Bitcoin, suggests sustained demand. Analysts suggest that ETH’s ability to hold near the $2,600 level could indicate greater investor confidence in the network’s long-term prospects. Other major altcoins, like Solana (SOL) and XRP, followed a similar trend, each falling by just over 1%.
The altcoin sector also saw significant gains today, with Worldcoin (WLD) leading the pack. WLD jumped 11.24% to $2.06, followed by Starknet (STRK), which climbed 6.78%, hitting $0.4576. Injective (INJ) saw an increase of 5.91%, trading at $22.85.
On the other hand, some altcoins have seen notable declines. Conflux (CFX) fell 6.05% to $0.1566, while Fantom (FTM) and Stacks (STX) fell 4.83% and 4.82%, respectively.
Overall, the global cryptocurrency market cap fell 1.23%, falling to $2.23 trillion, with 24-hour trading volume down 12.79%, settling at 64.82 billion dollars. Despite these fluctuations, overall market sentiment remains neutral as investors await clearer market signals regarding the next phase of Bitcoin and altcoin price movements.
For now, the market remains cautious, with traders closely monitoring signs of an altcoin rally that could follow Bitcoin’s recent decline.
