Dipping Bitcoin clawing for support above $40,000

January 22, 2024

THE price of Bitcoin is down by 3% over 24 hours as the market leader trades in the $40,500 to $41,000 range after finding support around $40,000 earlier this morning. 

Ethereum is in the same boat, shedding 4% off its price overnight. The original smart contracts crypto is trading for around $2,400. 

It’s a similar story across the majority of the crypto market, with green price indicators few and far between. One of these is Litecoin, which is in the positive by 1.76%, and Chainlink, which has returned 0.34% overnight. 

Indicators continue to signal a cooling in the markets following the rally of the last month.
