Ethereum, BNB, Tron, and other altcoins are isolating themselves from Bitcoin’s bearish trends. This comes after Bitcoin’s price crashed below $70k, almost reaching $58k. In this article, we will explore the Bitcoin price crash, how altcoins are recovering from the effects, and how memecoins are joining the new trend.
Bitcoin Price Crash
The apex cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, experienced massive fluctuations in the market, with the price coming down to less than $61k at one point. It all started with the Israel-Iran tensions between April 12th and 14th. Apparently, investors had reacted poorly, shifting their funds from several crypto investments to other alternatives. This crashed the price of Bitcoin, which was at more than $70k at that point, to $60k.
Moreover, this affected other altcoins in the crypto market, with Ethereum dropping to less than $3k, BNB below $600, and many others. Even after the halving, Bitcoin price has remained largely stagnant. However, many altcoins in the crypto market, such as Ethereum, BNB, and Solana, seem less affected by Bitcoin price fluctuations.
Ethereum, BNB, and Other Altcoins Less Affected By Bitcoin Price Movements
In their latest price analysis, altcoins such as Ethereum, BNB, Solana, and Tron are looking less affected by Bitcoin’s downward price movements. Starting with Ethereum, the price went below $3k at one point. However, it has made an incredible recovery, staying above $3k for many days. At the time of writing, Ethereum was staying above $3,200 with a weekly increase of more than 3%.
BNB stands out as one of the best-performing altcoins in the crypto market, as it barely shows any sign of decline in the price chart. Its daily, weekly, and monthly charts are all greens, recording 1%, 3%, and 2% gains, respectively. Subsequently, the BNB’s price has consistently stayed above $600 for most days.
Solana and Tron also stand out for ignoring Bitcoin’s latest price movements and consistently increasing prices. Tron is one of the few major altcoins that does not have any loss in the daily, weekly, and monthly charts at press time. With its price at $0.1212, there’s more than an 8% increase in the price of this token.
Memecoins Join the Queue
Memecoins are also joining the trend of isolating their market performances from the price of Bitcoin. Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and PEPE are leading this race, with the three major memecoins trying to maintain their market valuation despite the chaos. At press time, DOGE is maintaining a price of $0.14 with a market valuation of more than $21 billion. Shiba Inu and Pepe are also seeing minimal losses, with $14 billion and $3 billion market valuations, respectively.
Conclusion
April has been one of the worst months in terms of price performance for Bitcoin and the broader crypto market. However, many altcoins are learning to isolate themselves from the bearish price movements of BTC. Ethereum, BNB, and Tron stand out for this new trend, with each of them recording minimal losses. Indeed, memecoins are also joining this trend, with Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and PEPE leading the charge. Nevertheless, there’s a chance Bitcoin will rebound following the recent milestone of a forth fourth Bitcoin halving.
