Bitcoin steadies the ship as industry market cap steers a course towards $850 billion

By Darren Parkin

Bitcoin’s price change over the last week is steady at 0% this morning – a welcome respite from the volatility of the last few weeks.

The original cryptocurrency continues posting higher highs and higher lows in the last few days, trading for $16,594 today. Ethereum is also clawing back ground, trading 3% higher over the last day at $1,202.

The market cap of the entire crypto industry has inched higher to $837 billion from yesterday’s $827 billion.

The third-generation cryptocurrencies seem to be benefitting from the flickers of positive sentiment. Solana has added another 8% to yesterday’s price while Chainlink is up 2%, trading for $6.70.
