Crypto market cap hovers $2.45t as Bitcoin, Solana, Ethereum, Dogecoin face downward pressure

Digital assets continue to struggle as the crypto market cap dips 1.28%. It currently hovers at around $2.45 trillion — a 94.5% change one year ago.

In what could be a knock-on effect from the traditional market, which saw the Japanese yen tumble to a 34-year low against the U.S. dollar, leading cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC), Solana (SOL), and Dogecoin (DOGE) all saw their prices drop in the last 24 hours.

Bitcoin

Per data from CoinMarketCap, Bitcoin is currently priced at $63,284, which is a 2.32% drop from 24 hours ago.

In that period, the number one crypto recorded a trading volume of $22.89 billion, which was the second-highest amount in the last 24 hours.

While Bitcoins price is still more than 118% higher than it was at the same point a year ago, it is in the red over several other time frames.

For instance, the current price signifies a 10% dip over 30 days, a 6.7% drop across a fortnight, and a more modest 1.3% loss in the last seven days.

Solana

On its part, Solana — fifth on the list of the biggest cryptocurrencies by market cap — saw its price go down by more than 4% in 24 hours.

Currently, the coin is changing hands at $137.21 and has a 24-hour trading volume just north of $2.4 billion.

It also marks a nearly 8% dip across 14 days, as well as a 2.6% loss over 7 days.

Ethereum

Ethereum seems to have bucked the general negative trend, albeit rather modestly. At the time of writing, it was trading at about $3,137, which is a 0.23% uptick over the last day.

The slight bump was accompanied by a 24-hour trading volume of $10.26 billion, making ETH the third most traded cryptocurrency after Tether and Bitcoin.

Ethereums gains over seven days are more significant, with the current price being a 4% improvement on where it was a week ago.

However, the bearish sentiment that seems to have washed over the crypto market in the last month has not spared ETH either. It has lost more than 12% of its value in that time.

Dogecoin

Dogecoin — the largest meme token — also shed some of its value in the last 24 hours.

The dog-themed coin shed nearly 3% of its price in that time. Trading at about $0.1451, Dogecoins value is also more than 30% lower than its level from a month ago.
