Bitcoin Nears $26,500
Bitcoin is seeing improved performance for the first time this week, with prices of most cryptocurrencies in the green zone. BTC is up by less than 1% and is currently trading close to the $26,500 mark.
There is no major catalyst behind the positive performance as the market rebounds from its recent bearish trend. Bitcoin Cash is the best performer amongst the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market cap, adding more than 10% to its value in the last 24 hours.
At press time, the price of Bitcoin Cash stands at $237. The bulls have now established strong support around the $228 region, and this could see Bitcoin Cash rally higher towards the $250 resistance level.
Toncoin, the native coin of the TON blockchain, has also continued its upward rally. TON surged by more than 4% in the last 24 hours and looks set to reclaim its position as one of the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap.
The total cryptocurrency market cap now stands at $1.05 trillion once again, up by 1% so far today.
