The price action displayed by Bitcoin (BTC) in recent times has yet to be encouraging after its erratic price movement, leading to the price of many altcoins, including Bitcoin (BTC), battling for survival. The Domino effect of the FTX saga and other huge investors involved has left the market at a standstill as the market is yet to make a major move after previous weeks saw the price of Bitcoin (BTC) perform well, rallying from a low of $19,200 to a high of $21,600. Most altcoins trend higher as many produced gains of over 200%, including DOGE rallying from a region of $0.55 to a high of $0.15. Still, these expectations were cut short by the uncertainty surrounding the crypto market, leading to much fear about where the market could be headed. (Data from Binance)
