Bitcoin Nears $90K

Bitcoin price has surged past $91K while XRP, Solana, and LEO token struggle, with the latter dropping 6% on April 22, 2025.

Bitcoin’s price has surged above $91,000, with hopes rising that it will soon break the $92,000 mark.

This price jump follows a steady rally, marking a new monthly high for the cryptocurrency. Bitcoin’s strong performance has outpaced many altcoins, such as Ethereum (ETH), XRP, and Solana (SOL), which have failed to keep up with Bitcoin’s momentum.

In the last 24 hours, Bitcoin’s price has increased by 2.12%, reaching $91,000. It has steadily climbed from a low of $86,692 to a high of $91,000, with its trading volume rising by nearly 40% to $36.65 billion. This upward trend follows weeks of sideways movement in the market, which had investors anticipating such a breakout.

Ethereum (ETH) is trading near $1,630, while XRP is trying to rise above $2.10. Both of these altcoins, along with Solana (SOL), Tron (TRX), and Cardano (ADA), have seen reduced investor interest. They are currently trading near resistance levels, showing a lack of momentum to push higher.

While Bitcoin is performing well, the overall altcoin market has seen a modest rise, with its market cap reaching $1.01 trillion. Among the top gainers today is Fartcoin, which has surged by over 18%, followed by Kaspa (KAS), Polygon (POL), and Stacks (STX), all showing significant increases. Other notable gainers include Kaia (KAIA), Tao (TAO), Dexe (DEXE), and Bonk (BONK), each rising by around 5%.

On the other hand, LEO token is the top loser of the day, dropping by 6%. Other cryptocurrencies like Filecoin (FIL), Movement (MOVE), Internet Computer (ICP), and Core (CORE) also saw declines in value.

The total crypto market capitalization today is $2.77 trillion, with a 24-hour trading volume of $87.52 billion, as per CoinMarketCap data.
