This weekend doesn’t resemble the previous few, which were a lot less volatile, as the primary cryptocurrency has dumped hard to a ten-day low of under $65,000.

The alternative coins are also well in the red, and the total crypto market cap has lost over $100 billion daily and more than $300 billion in the past few days.

BTC Dumps Hard

Monday began on a high note as BTC soared from $67,000 after retracing on Sunday evening to over $70,000 to register a new all-time high. The asset kept climbing in the following days and peaked at $73,800, which is the current ATH as of now.

It was reached on Thursday but was followed by a massive rejection. The bears finally took control of the market and pushed Bitcoin south to under $66,000 on Friday. BTC recovered some ground on Saturday and even challenged $70,000.

However, it didn’t see much success there and was quickly driven back down to $68,000. The last 12 hours or so saw another decline that led to BTC charting a ten-day low of $64,500 (on Bitstamp). Despite recovering around a grand since that low, Bitcoin is still more than 5% down on the day.
