Bitcoin Holds Firm Above $81,000 Amid Altcoin Frenzy
Bitcoin's price held above $81,000 on Sunday evening, according to CoinGecko data.
The 24-hour price change was a positive 0.7% in USD terms, with a market cap of $1.62 trillion and daily trading volume of $21.6 billion.
Bitcoin's stability contrasted with other trending assets, which saw significant gains: Sui (SUI) rose by 24%, while SWEAT (SWEAT) surged over 257% and TROLL (TROLL), a Solana-based meme token, added roughly 98%. This pattern is consistent with altcoin season dynamics.
The $80,000 level has acted as both support and resistance in recent months. Volume at $21.6 billion is considered healthy for a Sunday session, indicating active participation despite the mild price change.
