In terms of market movements, May had major volatilities after some highs in April. Bitcoin reached a low of $30.8K on May 19. Then, it declined by more than 50%. Less than a week later, it tested similar levels again. Now, some symmetrical patterns might break out on any side. It depends on the market segment.
Overview of The Crypto Market
On June 3, Bitcoin seemed to be heading towards $41K, but Elon Musk’s tweet got back to the line around $38K. It quickly recovered during the day, however. Perhaps it is exhibiting a sign that the market might be getting insulated from Musk’s influence.
The second-largest cryptocurrency – Ethereum, showed a trend that is similar to Bitcoin. In the last week, it raised by 4%, but now it pushes back. On Wednesday, Ethereum was above $2,880. Soon, this currency might need to break more than the $3,000 mark and maintain it.
Overall, it should see the recovery for Ethereum and Bitcoin together. Besides those two cryptocurrencies, Dogecoin, Cardano, and Polygon are likely to experience gain once Bitcoin breaks out.
