Bitcoin Price Analysis: BTCUSD Peaks at $55,800 Amid Bullish Resurgence

Amid a sharp bullish resurgence across the crypto market, Bitcoin (BTC) recorded a massive jump to the $55,800 level yesterday, its highest point since early May this year.

The benchmark cryptocurrency is up by 6% and 26% over the past 24 hours and the past seven days, respectively, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

BTC reached an intraday high of $55,800 yesterday before posting a -3.5% drop below the $54,000 line a few hours ago.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s market dominance also recorded a significant increase, indicating that the primary cryptocurrency had a better performance than most altcoins in recent days. The BTC market dominance currently sits near 45%, a two-month high.

Also, hundreds of millions of dollars in leveraged positions got liquidated, over 90% of which were short positions. A large percentage of this liquidation came from behemoth exchange Huobi, which recorded the largest single valuation ($11 million).

Meanwhile, the altcoin sector also recorded some gains, with Shiba Inu surging by a jaw-dropping 364% over the past seven days. Ethereum (ETH, Binance Coin (BNB), Cardano (ADA), Ripple (XRP), and Polkadot (DOT) all recorded significant gains over the past 24 hours with +5.2%, +4.6%, +7.9%, +3.8%, and +12.4%. Solana (SOL) remained relatively unchanged with +1.4%, while Dogecoin (DOGE) dropped by -2.3% despite the market-wide rally.
