- Bitcoin is hovering around $10,250, critical $10,000 limits the downside.
- Bitcoin SV is the best-perfroming altcoin with over 4.5% of gains.
The global cryptocurrency market is a mixed picture during early European hours on Tuesday. Bitcoin is range-bound with bearish bias while the majority of altcoins are directionless, influenced by speculative and technical factors. The total market capitalization dropped to $264 billion, an average daily trading volume sits at $56 billion, while Bitcoin's market dominance retreated to $69.7%.
Top-3 coins price overview
At the time of writing, BTC/USD is changing hands at $10,260, off the intraday high registered on approach to $10,400. The price of the first digital asset has been range-bound with bearish bias since the end of the previous week with $10,000 now back in focus.
Ethereum, the second-largest digital asset with the current market capitalization of $19.5 billion, is changing hands at $181.30. ETH/USD has gained 1.2% in recent 24 hours and stayed unchanged since the beginning of the day. The coin has retreated from the intraday high of $184.50.
Ripple's XRP is going nowhere. The third-largest cryptocurrency asset with the market value of $11.2 billion is sitting marginally below $0.2600, immovable both since the beginning of the day and on a day-on-day basis. The strong trendline support is created on approach to $0.2550, the resistance awaits the bulls at $0.2600.
