Crypto Market Recap: 28, December 2018

The Santa rally seems to be like a mirage that is now gone and the hard cold December is back with a vengeance. Three days into the new year, the crypto market is back to the reds with no relief in sight. Most major coins are losing in the range of 3%-13% on a day-to-day basis.

The market capitalization lost over $6 Billion overnight and the total value of the entire crypto market is now at $121.9 Billion at the time of this writing. The trading volume has lost another billion and is now at $15.3 Billion. The Bitcoin dominance is continually climbing and is now at 52.5% which means that altcoins are once again dropping their market capitalization.

The Bitcoin is around the $3500 level at the moment and is currently at $3577 at the time of this writing. It has lost -3.46% on the day with the price foreseen to be falling lower. There is no upside momentum that will push above several resistance levels on the $3680 and $3725. This near the weekend, the volume has already dipped at $4.9 Billion with the market capitalization at $64 Billion.

Ethereum has lost -5.65% on the day and is now at $116 at the time of this writing and consolidating losses after a huge sell-off on Thursday. ICOs has been affecting the coin hugely, widening the market cap once again with XRP which is also down over 25% from the recent peak reached at $0.4600.

The rest of the Top 10 are experiencing massive selloffs as well. Bitcoin Cash leads the dump with a double-digit loss at -10.09% bringing the price down to $151.68. Bitcoin SV follows with -8.24% loss on the day. The rest follows with 4–6% loss on the average. Meanwhile, the Top 25 are all in the red with 2–8% losses. The biggest losers are NEM and Tezos at -8.69% and -8.39% respectively.

Down the Top 100, there are still a couple of pumps. The biggest pump is happening at DEX with a 33.23% surge on the day. Endor Protocol follows with a 28.77% growth on the day. MobileGo rounds off our double-digit gainers at 11.12%. There are a few oddballs which are still green including Theta, Komodo, and Stasis EURS with 5–7% gain on the day. On the other end, QASH is dumping hard at -19.34% followed by Holo at -11.02% loss.

Anyhow, this is today’s market recap to give you a glimpse of what happened on the crypto markets while you were sleeping. Trade safe, and have a great Friday!
