Following recent volatility, Bitcoin (BTC) has found stability around the $43,000 mark. Despite fluctuations earlier in the week, BTC managed to rebound from a low of $38,500 last Thursday. Since then, it has steadily climbed back up, briefly surpassing $43,000 before facing resistance. While BTC’s price has remained relatively unchanged over the past 24 hours, its market capitalization has reached $845 billion, maintaining dominance over the altcoin market at 51.1% on CoinMarketCap.

ICP Leads Among Top Performers
In contrast to the overall calmness in the market, certain altcoins have demonstrated notable gains. Among them, Internet Computer (ICP) has emerged as a top performer, soaring over 7% in daily trading. Currently trading above $13, ICP has shown significant bullish momentum. Additionally, TIA has also seen substantial gains, rising by 8% and reclaiming the $18 level.
Altcoin Market Shows Mixed Performance
While some altcoins have experienced modest gains, others have shown a slight decline or remained relatively stagnant. Popular cryptocurrencies like Ethereum (ETH), XRP, Cardano (ADA), Avalanche (AVAX), and Chainlink (LINK) have seen marginal increases. Conversely, Binance Coin (BNB), Dogecoin (DOGE), TRON (TRX), Polkadot (DOT), and TON have faced minor losses. Solana has dipped below the $100 mark, and MATIC is trading below $0.8, down by 3%.
Total Crypto Market Cap Maintains Stability
Despite fluctuations in individual coin prices, the total cryptocurrency market cap has remained stable at $1.650 trillion on CoinMarketCap. While BTC’s resilience around the $43,000 mark has contributed to this stability, the performance of altcoins like ICP and TIA has added excitement to the market.
