[CryptoButthead.com , May 9, 2023] Well, ain’t that somethin’ folks? Them digital gold nuggets, Bitcoin BTCUSD +0.68%, along with them other fancy digital coins done fell off the wagon again this Tuesday. Y’see, there was this massive traffic jam in the blockchain network, and that made Binance, the biggest crypto exchange in this world, halt them withdrawals for a bit. Now, that’s a real hoot!
Meanwhile, there was a new funny money, a memecoin they call ‘Pepe’. This lil’ critter nearly touched a market value of $2 billion just a few days back. But now, looks like it’s slidin’ down the mountain faster than a greased hog in summer. Some folks reckon this hoo-ha ain’t too good for Bitcoin, which is already havin’ a tough time, tradin’ below some important levels. Poor ol’ Bitcoin, it’s been havin’ a rough ride for three days now, with prices droppin’ like a stone, and it’s barely clutchin’ on to $27,000.
Now, most of them other digital coins ain’t doin’ too well either, with MATIC, SOL, DOGE, and LTC takin’ a real beatin’. LDO and BCH, well, they’re just plain ol’ deprecated.
Just a few days ago, the big daddy Bitcoin started climbin’ like a ‘coon up a tree, nearly reachin’ $30,000. But then, it couldn’t make it to the top and started slidin’ back down faster than a skunk off a flat rock.
Them ol’ bears done took over the market and drove Bitcoin right down below $29,000. After hangin’ on there for a bit, things started to look mighty bleak on Monday. As a result, Bitcoin lost another big one.
This past day brought more woes for them bulls. Bitcoin went from $28,000 to $27,200 in another price tumble. It done managed to pick up a few hundred dollars since, but is still down over 1% on the day.
As a result, Bitcoin’s market capitalization done dropped to $535 billion. Just to give y’all some context, Friday night, it was over $560 billion. Now, ain’t that a kick in the pants?
