Bitcoin
Bitcoin eased to $59,229.00, -1.00% on the day and -4.88% over the trailing week. The asset is changing hands -53.02% from its all-time high of $126,080.00. On the intraday chart, $59,000.00 is the nearest level bulls will want to defend, while a sustained push through $60,000.00 would open the door to continuation. The 24-hour range ran from $59,023.00 to $60,644.00.
Ethereum
Ethereum ticked up to $1,579.58 (+0.65% / -4.32% weekly). The ETH/BTC ratio sits near 0.02667, a gauge worth watching for any rotation between the two largest assets. Initial support rests around $1,500.00, with overhead supply into $1,600.00.
Standout movers
Among the top 100, MemeCore (M) led the advance, jumped +10.93% to $0.653. On the other side of the tape, LAB (LAB) was the weakest major, dropped sharply -15.94%.

Sentiment
The Crypto Fear & Greed Index reads 15 (Extreme Fear), versus 12 a day ago and 23 a week ago. Extreme fear grips the market; such washed-out readings have marked durable lows in past cycles, though they can persist.
What to watch
- Bitcoin $60,000.00: a clean break and hold above this level would confirm renewed momentum; failure keeps the range intact.
- Dominance at 55.6%: a roll-over here would be the classic tell that capital is rotating into altcoins.
- Volume: today's $80.67B is on the lighter side, so treat breakouts with caution.
- Sentiment: watch whether Fear & Greed recovers from fear as price stabilises.
