Meanwhile, BTC volume in the last 24 hours stood at approximately $13.72 billion, falling 22.75% in the last 24 hours.

“Bitcoin traded sideways in the past 24 hours. BTC’s price started to recover as the blockchain congestion eases. On the other hand, investors are awaiting the CPI inflation, which is set to be released today,” Edul Patel, CEO and Co-Founder of Mudrex, said.

BTC is currently trading at the $27,600 level and facing resistance near the US$28,000 zone, Edul said.

Bitcoin’s dominance is currently 46.96%, an increase of 0.07% over the day, according to CoinMarketCap.”Bitcoin, the leading cryptocurrency, faced considerable resistance around the $30.4K mark on April 14th, resulting in a noteworthy decline in its value. Projections indicate a potential further drop in the market, with expectations of a decline to around $25K,” said Rahul Jain, Web3 Growth Manager at BNS.

Furthermore, if Bitcoin’s price falls below the critical threshold of $23.9K, it is anticipated that the price will decrease even further, Rahul added.
