Bitcoin Stabilizes Above $7,000 As Dominance Continues To Rise: Friday Crypto Market Watch

After going through another volatility earlier this week, which pushed its value down to as low as $6450 on major exchanges, Bitcoin has made a quick recovery above $7,000 and is currently trading at $7,200, indicating a 1.12% gains on the daily chart. Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s dominance continues to increase and it stands at 68.3%. 

This week’s drop didn’t only cause panic among traders but also turned the entire market into a red zone. Bitcoin’s quick recovery, however, has given a sense of hope that the cryptocurrency will not dip further. If it continues with the current momentum, the coin could break the $7400 resistance level within the next few trading sessions.
