Crypto Prices Consolidate After Geopolitical Tensions Stall Uptrend
Cryptocurrency prices are consolidating after last weekend's uptrend stall due to renewed geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Bitcoin (BTC) is hovering above its $78,000 support level as bulls struggle to extend gains.
Ethereum (ETH) and Ripple (XRP) are mirroring Bitcoin's neutral-to-bullish outlook, trading above key support levels at $2,400 and $1.35, respectively.
Institutional demand persists despite the consolidation, with appetite for risk assets remaining elevated in recent weeks. The Fear & Greed Index holds at 69, suggesting investor greed against last month's fear.
