The BTC quotes on Monday are hovering near 30,313 USD.
The market failed to continue skyrocketing though it still had all reasons to do so. Last week, the resounding victory of Ripple over the SEC in court provided the cryptocurrency sector with a mighty momentum. More than that, the crash of the USD also facilitated the flow of money to digital assets.
The technical boundary at 31,150 USD was tested but the next one at 31,500 USD remained intact, pushing BTC back.
The daily price chart is giving signals for a decline. It is high time to turn to the support level near 29,800 USD. For the flagship cryptocurrency to start growing again, it needs to secure above 31,000 USD.
The cryptocurrency market capitalisation amounts to 1.220 trillion USD. The BTC share remains at 48.5%, while the ETH share has dropped to 19.1%.
