Bitcoin & Solana Flatline While Ethereum Crashes Below $2.6K – July 8 Market Watch
Crypto markets hit the snooze button as Bitcoin and Solana trade sideways—meanwhile, Ethereum takes a 5% nosedive below $2,600. Traders yawn; leverage rats scramble.
Sideways symphony: BTC and SOL cling to tight ranges, neither bulls nor bears claiming dominance. Textbook accumulation or prelude to a breakout? Place your bets.
ETH's ugly Tuesday: The smart contract pioneer tumbles as staking yields compress. 'Ultra-sound money' still searching for its footing—and liquidity.
Wall Street's shadow: Traditional markets dip on Fed whispers, dragging crypto down like an anchor. Correlation or coincidence? (Spoiler: your 'hedge' just became a liability.)
As always, the market giveth and the SEC taketh away—just ask the XRP holders still waiting for their 2021 moonbags to refill.
Ethereum Dips Below $2.6K While SOL Price Holds $150
Ethereum price with an intraday correction of 0.85% has failed to hold its value above its important watch point of $2,600. This has resulted in it losing its dominance to 9.1549% with a market valuation of $306.370 billion.
Solana, on the other hand, managed to hold its value above the $150 mark but recorded a neutral price action over the last 24 hours, suggesting a cool-off phase for the altcoin in the market. Moreover, with a market share of 2.7798%, its valuation stands strong at $81.461 billion.
