Despite Bitcoin's recent price volatility, the cryptocurrency market remains optimistic. After reaching over $62,000, Bitcoin retraced its steps, currently standing at $61,500. However, its market cap has risen above $1.2 trillion, albeit with dominance over altcoins struggling below 50.5%.

Several altcoins have significantly outperformed Bitcoin, including DOT, AVAX, and SOL. Notably, asset manager VanEck filed to launch the first Solana ETF in the U.S., causing SOL's price to surge and reach $150 for the first time in weeks. Despite a slight retraction, SOL is still up by 7%.

Other altcoins, such as Avalanche (9%) and Polkadot (8%), have also seen substantial gains. AVAX has risen above $28, while DOT is now well over $6. The total crypto market cap has regained about $40 billion overnight and is above $2.4 trillion. Despite some red flags, the market's overall trajectory remains positive, underscoring the potential of DeFi and BRC 20.
