Brief as of
Crypto spent the session on the back foot, with Bitcoin slipping to $78,271, down 1.92% over 24 hours, and the total market cap easing to $2.47 trillion, off 1.9%. Forty-one of 55 tracked coins fell, nine held inside a percentage point, and only five rose. Ether traded at $2,243.28, down 2.7%. It was a broad, orderly decline rather than a single-name break.
The total crypto market cap stood at $2.47 trillion, down 1.9% over 24 hours and 3.91% over seven days. Bitcoin traded at $78,271, off 1.92% on the day and 3.94% on the week, with dominance holding at 63.6%. Ether slipped to $2,243.28, down 2.7% over the same window. Total volume across the 55 tracked coins reached $222.67 billion, and Bitcoin's own RSI sat at 42.9 with a downtrend reading.
Breadth stayed negative: five tracked coins rose, 41 fell and nine held inside a percentage point. The major cohort, eight coins, averaged -2.15% with no risers and seven fallers. Meme names, five coins, averaged -2.18%, also with no risers and five fallers. The 39 coins grouped as other averaged -1.41%, with five risers and 29 fallers. The gap between the cohorts was narrow: majors and memes fell hardest, the broader tail slightly less.
Beam was the day's clear leader, trading at $0.00414242 for a 23.1% gain. Its RSI read 79.8 with an uptrend flag, and volume reached $48.63 million. The 24-hour range ran from $0.00322489 to $0.00417565, putting the price near the top of that band. Beam is up 32.96% over seven days and 105.64% over 30. No news item in the packet covers the move, so the numbers stand on their own.
THORChain followed with an 11.14% gain to $0.671434, an RSI of 74.3 and $77.75 million in volume; its 24-hour range was $0.583757 to $0.711908. Quant added 2.63% to $196.01 on $118.76 million in volume, with an RSI of 55.6. JasmyCoin rose 1.91% to $0.00376852 and Bitcoin Cash 1.81% to $284.04 on $281.6 million. All four are up modestly while the wider tape fell, and three carry a downtrend flag.
Pyth Network led the decliners, down 11.46% to $0.061766 with an RSI of 28.6; it is off 14.74% over seven days and 21.25% over 30. Celestia fell 10.29% to $0.462491, RSI 27.6, down 17.83% on the week though still up 4.08% over 30 days. Lido DAO slipped 9.16% to $0.328389, down 30.34% over 30 days. Immutable lost 8.72% to $0.128708 with an RSI of 17.2, and The Graph fell 8.52% to $0.01952019.
Technical breadth was one-sided. Of 30 sampled coins, none were overbought and none oversold, while 24 carried a downtrend flag and two an uptrend. Bitcoin's own RSI sat at 42.9 with a downtrend reading and volatility printed at zero. Support sits at $76,330.10 and resistance at $79,911, with the price holding above support and below resistance. That mix reads as a calm, persistently heavy tape rather than a stretched one.
Over seven days, Beam leads with 32.96%, followed by Pepe at 8.45% and THORChain at 5.17%. The weakest week belongs to Worldcoin, down 28.09%, then JasmyCoin at -20.02% and The Graph at -19.63%. Tether was the volume leader at $94.28 billion against $222.67 billion in total market volume. Beam and THORChain are the only names appearing on both the daily and weekly riser lists, while Pepe's 8.45% weekly gain does not appear among the day's risers.
Today's tape reads as broad, orderly distribution rather than a single-name break. Bitcoin's 1.92% decline and Ether's 2.7% drop sit close to the market's 1.9% cap-weighted move, and 41 of 55 tracked coins fell. The cohort table shows the pressure is even: majors averaged -2.15%, memes -2.18%, the wider tail -1.41%. What stands out is the absence of extremes. Of 30 sampled coins, none were overbought and none oversold, and Bitcoin's RSI of 42.9 is neither stretched nor washed out. The risers are few and mostly small — Beam's 23.1% and THORChain's 11.14% are the exceptions, and both carry uptrend flags. The laggards, from Pyth's -11.46% to The Graph's -8.52%, are giving back multi-week ground, with 30-day declines of 21.25% and 32.31% respectively.
Yesterday's brief noted Bitcoin slipping to $79,824 with 47 of 55 coins falling; today the count is 41 of 55 at $78,271, a second straight heavy session. Watch whether Bitcoin holds above support at $76,330.10 — the price trades below resistance at $79,911. Beam's RSI of 79.8 and THORChain's 74.3 are the only readings near overbought on a day when none of the 30 sampled coins registered that way, and both sit on uptrend flags. Celestia's 4.08% 30-day gain against a 17.83% weekly loss is the divergence to note.
