Bitcoin remained near $66,000 as Asian and European markets opened and U.S. futures joined in, signaling a calmer session after a volatile weekend. Following a rejection at $70,000 last week, BTC briefly dipped below $67,000 before stabilizing near $66,000. Over the weekend, prices moved on headlines from the Middle East, with BTC temporarily slipping to a multi-day low around $63,000 before buyers pushed it back toward the mid-$60s.
XRP was among the weaker performers as the attacks began, allowing BNB to surpass XRP in market capitalization. The two had switched positions yesterday, but today BNB holds the upper hand with a price of about $617 and a market cap around $84.2 billion, compared with XRP’s roughly $82.5 billion.
The latest market action underscores ongoing volatility as traders weigh weekend headlines and macro developments, with Bitcoin hovering near key support levels and leading tokens jockeying for position in the market cap standings. Investors will monitor whether BTC can sustain the $66,000 area and if BNB and XRP can extend their cap advantage in the coming sessions.
