Bitcoins price tumbled below $100,500 yesterday, but the bulls managed to defend that level, not allowing a price slip into five-digit territory.
Many altcoins have posted impressive gains over the past 24 hours following yesterdays correction, led by a substantial pump from SUI.
The business week started on the right foot for BTC, which jumped to $106,500 on a couple of occasions on Monday and Tuesday. However, it saw little success there, and the subsequent rejections pushed it south by about two grand.
It jumped once again on Thursday after the ECB cut the interest rates to 2%, but was halted at $106,000. The online spat saga that transpired between the former allies, Elon Musk and Donald Trump, further intensified the sell-off and BTC dumped hard to $100,400 (on Bitstamp).
The bulls finally stepped up at this point and prevented another decline. Just the opposite, bitcoin started to recover and jumped to $105,500 in midday trading on Friday. It couldnt continue upward and now sits below $105,000, but its still 2% up on the day.
