📉 Bitcoin fell below $34,000, but the bulls managed and the rate returned above this level. Some altcoins such as Chainlink, Aptos and Cardano have performed better than the largest cryptocurrency. 🚀

Bitcoin experienced one of its strongest trading periods in a long time this week, returning to the $30,000 level. On Tuesday, the rate reached its maximum in a year and a half - $35,200. This comes amid rumors that BlackRock's application for a spot Bitcoin ETF may be approved.

However, after this multi-month peak, the rate began to decline, falling to $33,500. Bitcoin is currently trading just above $34,000 and its dominance of the altcoin market has dropped to 52.9%.

Among altcoins, Toncoin and Dogecoin showed the largest decline - by 2-3%. At the same time, ETH, BNB, TRX, MATIC, DOT and LTC rose. Cardano is up 3.6% and trading around $0.3, while LINK is up 5% and trading above $11. The total market capitalization remains approximately $1.250 trillion.
