Broader crypto market strength also remains low with BTC crawling below the $23,000 price mark. Ethereum too extended losses over the last 24 hours. Most altcoins followed the same price trajectory.
For Avalanche price to reclaim its immediate resistance of $24.8, strength from buyers remain crucial. The global cryptocurrency market cap today is at $1.1 Trillion with a 2.5% fall in the last 24 hours.
