Most larger-cap alts are in the red today as well, with XRP slipping further away from the $1.90 support, and ETH nearing the $2,900 support. BTC Below $87K The primary cryptocurrency experienced enhanced volatility at the end of the previous business week, especially since the release of the US CPI data for November, which was much better than anticipated. At first, BTC jumped to $89,500, but it was halted there and driven to a multi-week low of $84,400 in less than 12 hours.

However, that was another short-term move as the bears quickly stepped up and didn’t allow further gains. Just the opposite, bitcoin has lost more than three grand since then and now struggles below $87,000.
