Ethereum Moves Higher While Bitcoin Tries To Get Back Above $51,000

Ethereum is currently trying to settle back above the 20 EMA at $4,355 while Bitcoin attempts to settle above $51,000.

Major cryptocurrencies have found buyers after the recent sell-off, and the whole crypto market is trying to rebound. Bitcoin managed to get back above the psychologically important $50,000 level after a major sell-off which pushed the world’s leading cryptocurrency towards the $42,000 level.

Interestingly, Ethereum performed much better than Bitcoin in recent weeks. Bitcoin Dominance, which shows the market capitalization of Bitcoin as a percentage of total crypto market capitalization, is currently stuck near yearly lows at 41%. In case Bitcoin Dominance moves below the 40% level, traders may rush to find alternative crypto investments which will be bullish for Ethereum.

Other cryptocurrencies are also moving higher today. Dogecoin is trying to settle above $0.18 while Shiba Inu is moving towards the $0.000038 level. Solana is trying to get back above the $200 level. XRP has recently made an attempt to get above $0.85.
