Bitcoin traded at $10,653 as altcoins stumbled. DigiByte and Orchid bucked the downturn with gains of 11.89% and 30%. Nearly everything else fell.
Price swung through the early week session. Bitcoin lost 2.95%, sliding into the $10,600 zone. A break below would test $10,500, and further damage could reach the $10,300 weekly lows.
Red spread across major assets. Ethereum dipped more than 6% to $354. Ripple fell over 4%, around $0.23. ChainLink and Polkadot each declined 4 to 12%.
Coins across the top 100 sank more than 3% in a day. Two coins moved higher. DigiByte shot to $0.029, up 11.89%, as traders responded to news of a partnership with PAC Global. The deal highlighted the blockchain's capabilities. DGB/USD broke above a falling wedge and surpassed $0.026 resistance. The price sat above the 50 and 100-day moving averages, with bulls eyeing $0.03.
Orchid jumped 30% to $0.38. It climbed through the afternoon, bumping into resistance around $0.50. The RSI shifted out of overbought territory into neutral range. If selling resumed, $0.28 would catch bids.
Bigger losses hit other tokens. Flexacoin, Sushiswap, Aave, and Synthetix Network all fell more than 16% against the dollar in 24 hours. Bitcoin's next move would determine whether altcoins found support or sank further.
