Bitcoin (BTC) markets posted modest gains at the beginning of the March 29 trading session as traders sought stability above $28,000, a psychological support andresistance level.
Bitcoin remains pinned below $27,000, and the recent weakness of the past few days has increased calls from analysts for a fall to the low $20,000 levels.
the collective holdings of ETH whales have surged to 30.07 million ETH, marking a significant increase from 26.56 million ETH recorded earlier this year.
The market intelligence platform, IntoTheBlock, took to Twitter earlier this morning to announce that the amount of Ethereum (ETH) whales is on the rise.
Earlier in May, the market capitalization of Pepecoin (PEPE) — a cryptocurrency inspired by the popular internet meme Pepe the Frog — had soared to $1.8 billion.
Although PEPE is experiencing accelerated growth in terms of its market value per holder, the meme coin still has some ground to make up before it can overtake SHIB as the second-largest meme coin. The recent price movements of both cryptos have put this milestone even further out of PEPE’s reach as well.
Over the past 24 hours, SHIB’s price had dropped 1.39%. Despite this, it was still able to outperform PEPE, which experienced a 7.07% loss during this same period. As a result, SHIB was trading at $0.000008694 and PEPE was changing hands at $0.000001571. This comes after the total meme coin market cap dropped 0.59% and stood at $17,215,390,025.
