BTC and ETH rallies, SOL, XRP and DOGE lead strong rise in altcoins
Cryptocurrency prices have shown mixed movements today. Some coins are currently trading in the green while others are in the red zone. Several news and updates have affected the market trajectory since last weekend, such as Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the US presidential race, the Wazirx exchange hack, and the upcoming batch of Mt. Gox Creditors Repay.
However, major cryptocurrencies have shown resilience after these updates. Bitcoin price, for example, has maintained its position above $67,000 while Ethereum continues to trade above $3,400. Moreover, as investor sentiment continues to improve, the performance of other altcoins has also been remarkable.

At the same time, the total market cap has edged up by 0.87% to $2.46 trillion. Let’s take a look at the major cryptocurrency prices in the market over the past 24 hours.
