Worst-Performing Altcoins This Week as BTC Battles to Hold $80K: Weekend Watch

The weekend is not going in the typical calm manner as BTC dipped to a 5-week low of $79,100 on Saturday before it staged a notable comeback. Most altcoins followed suit, and we will also talk about their weekly movements, as there are some painful declines. It’s safe to say that the past week or so didn’t go quite well for the primary cryptocurrency, aside from a brief uptick on Wednesday. Bitcoin tanked after the CPI and PPI readings from the previous week to just under $80,000 but managed to rebound quickly to $82,600.
