PENGU Shoots Up by 20%, Bitcoin (BTC) Fails at $120K Again: Market Watch

Bitcoin continues to try to take down the $120,000 level, but the resistance is too strong for now, and the asset has slipped by two grand since its peak earlier today. In contrast, several altcoins have posted impressive gains over the past day, including BNB, which shot up to a new all-time high of $800. BTC Stalls at $120k After peaking beyond $123,000, the primary cryptocurrency dumped by over seven grand within a day and bottomed at just under $116,000 last week. The bulls halted the freefall at this point and didn’t allow another breakdown to take place. Just the opposite, BTC started to recover some ground and jumped to $121,000 by the end of the business week. However, it couldn’t breach that level, and despite its few attempts, each rejection resulted in a price slip to around $117,000. Following a quiet weekend, BTC jumped toward $120,000 twice on Monday and Wednesday morning, but the scenario repeated once again as profit-taking went wild . The latest rejection occurred earlier today, which drove bitcoin south to under $119,000 as of now. Consequently, bitcoin’s market cap has stalled at $2.360 trillion, while its dominance over the alts has taken another hit and is down to 59% on CG. BTCUSD.
