Market News
This week saw the second major correction in the crypto markets since Bitcoin’s May rally, with traders experiencing harsh volatility amongst choppy price action and market indecision.
Bitcoin found support near $7700 after falling precipitously from it’s $9100 local peak, and ends the week settling near $8000. Most of the top 10 followed a similar pattern, ending slightly down from last week’s highs with the exception of Litecoin, which has gone through a minor rally ending 6% up for the week at $113.
