Crypto Price Today: Bitcoin falls below $26,000; XRP, Shiba Inu shed over 2%
Meanwhile, the global cryptocurrency market cap was trading lower, around $1.05 trillion, falling 0.41% in the last 24 hours. «Bitcoin has been trading around the $26000 threshold over the weekend. However, the price of Bitcoin and market sentiments have been improving after there was positive commentary from JPMorgan analysts who said that Bitcoin’s downtrend could be ending,» said Edul Patel, CEO and co-founder of Mudrex. «They believe the declining open interest in Bitcoin futures contracts on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange suggests the long liquidation is over. The weekend also saw criticism from crypto Twitter following the U.S. Treasury Department’s new proposal on handling digital asset taxes,» Edul added.
