Crypto Weekly (Oct 21 – Oct 27): Bitcoin Sideways, Altcoins Drop Sharply

The cryptocurrency market at the end of October did not experience much volatility, as Bitcoin moved sideways and slightly declined, causing many altcoins to plummet.

Bitcoin Sideways, Altcoins Drop Sharply

Crypto Market Overview Last Week

In the final week of October, Bitcoin remained relatively stable, trading within a narrow range of $65,100 to $69,400. Although it initially surpassed the $69,000 level with hopes of reaching $70,000, Bitcoin later adjusted and moved sideways due to negative news. Despite this, Bitcoin continued to see strong interest from ETF funds, with BlackRock notably “holding up” Bitcoin ETFs last week, bringing in nearly $1 billion in inflows.

While Bitcoin held steady with slight declines, altcoins faced heavy selling pressure, pushing many back to their recent lows. The “Uptober” sentiment seems to have lost its relevance this year.
