Crypto Price Today: Bitcoin and Altcoins Show Mixed Signals

The cryptocurrency market is experiencing a mix of trends, with Bitcoin's price sliding by 2% to $24,479.61 while maintaining its dominance at 57.34%. Despite this dip, Fantom has emerged as the top performer among altcoins with a gain of 9.57%, followed closely by Algorand and Injective which posted gains of 7.97% and 7.90%, respectively.

Meanwhile, Ethereum saw a slight decline along with Solana and XRP, indicating bearish sentiments across these major cryptocurrencies. The Fear & Greed Index highlights an extreme greed score of 80 amidst increased trading volumes that rose by over six percent in intraday sessions according to Coinpedia Fintech News (source: coinpedia.org).

Bitcoin ETF Volume Reaches New Heights Amidst Market Volatility

The volume for Bitcoin ETFs reached an impressive $5 billion even as the price dipped below $24k, recently reported crypto.news (source: crypto.news). This surge was largely driven by institutional investors such as BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust leading the charge with significant inflows.

This comes amid reports from SoSoValue showing substantial outflows from spot exchange-traded funds in recent days due to fluctuating prices within the volatile crypto markets landscape.

Slight Dips Across Major Cryptocurrencies Including BTC And ETH

A phase of correction seems underway following weeks-long upward rallies; Gadgets360 notes marginal declines across several key players like Stellar and Chainlink alongside others including Near Protocol recording losses too (source: gadgets360.com).

Despite some setbacks, there remains optimism around potential recoveries fueled partly through ongoing robust interest shown towards both traditional and newer digital currencies alike, especially given positive regulatory developments globally supporting further growth prospects.
