Bitcoins relatively dull price actions in the past few days continued during the weekend by standing at around $118,000.

Several altcoins have performed significantly better since yesterday, with LTC jumping by 13% to over $115.

BTC Calms at $118K

The primary cryptocurrency started its impressive ascent in the previous business week when it finally broke above the $110,000 resistance and jumped to a new all-time high at the time of $112,000. The gains continued by the end of the week, and BTC neared $119,000 for another peak.

The culmination, though, took place on Monday, July 14, when the bulls took the asset to its latest ATH of over $123,000. Thus, it had added more than $15,000 in the span of just five days.

A correction seemed inevitable, and bitcoin slipped to under $116,000 in the next couple of days. Nevertheless, it defended that level and recovered some ground by the end of the week. It even challenged $120,000 and $121,000, but to no avail, and now sits around $118,000 after a calm Saturday.
