The cryptocurrency market saw a slight pullback today, with Bitcoin (BTC) retreating below $109K, a day after hitting a record high of $111,961 on May 22. This 1.6% dip, driven by profit-taking and Trump’s surprising tariff plan for the European Union, underscores Bitcoin’s ongoing volatility as it consolidates its position as a leading asset with a market cap surpassing $2.2 trillion.
Amid the increased uncertainty, the overall market sentiment remains cautiously optimistic, buoyed by Bitcoin’s strong performance and a global crypto market cap surpassing $3.5 trillion, up significantly from recent months.
However, a $562 million liquidation in the past 24 hours event triggered by tariff concerns has introduced unpredictability and tempered bullish enthusiasm.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading near $108,868, down 2.45% in the past 24 hours. It fell nearly 3% from the daily of $111,881 to as low as $108,092—as per CoinMarketCap data.
As Bitcoin dips 3%, altcoins have displayed mixed results, with Ethereum (ETH) falling 4% to $2,532 while XRP seeing a 3% drop to $2.3 price mark. Other altcoins like BNB ($668) and Solana ($179) relatively held steady movement, while Dogecoin ($0.2342) showed slight resilience.
