Major cryptos hold steady while broader index takes a hit—because what's a little volatility among friends?

Market Momentum Stalls

Bitcoin and Ethereum barely moved as the CoinDesk 20 slipped 1.1%—traders apparently decided to take a coffee break instead of making moves.

The usual suspects played it cool while the index caught a mild case of the Mondays. No panic, no frenzy—just digital assets doing their best impression of stablecoins.

Traditional Finance Parallels

Watching crypto markets sometimes feels like staring at legacy markets—except here the 'corrections' come with better memes and fewer suits.

Flat trading might bore Wall Street, but in crypto-land, it's just the calm before the next 20% pump—or dump. Because who needs predictability when you've got 'number go up' technology?

9am CoinDesk 20 Update for 2025-08-22: vertical

Leaders: ETH (+0.0%) and BTC (-0.1%).

Laggards: ADA (-3.1%) and LINK (-2.9%).

The CoinDesk 20 is a broad-based index traded on multiple platforms in several regions globally.
