The crypto market appeared to be losing steam on Friday, September 6. The world's oldest and biggest cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, saw a loss of between 1.06 and 2.03 percent on national and international exchanges, data showed. BTC is trading at the price point of $56,530 (roughly Rs. 47.4 lakh) on foreign exchanges, while on Indian exchanges it is trading at around $60,355 (roughly Rs. 50.6 lakh).

Solana, XRP, Shiba Inu, Chainlink, Bitcoin Cash, Leo, and Near Protocol reflected losses on Friday. Among the altcoins that saw a price drop were also Stellar, Cronos, Polygon, Cosmos, and Elrond.

“In the altcoin space, performance has been mixed. Ethereum, XRP, Solana, and BNB saw modest declines, reflecting broader market consolidation. Toncoin, however, stood out with a four percent gain. Altcoins are poised to underperform relative to Bitcoin if bearish trend persists,” Vikram Subburaj, CEO, Giottus told Gadgets360.

The overall crypto market cap slipped by 0.88 percent in the last 24 hours, showed CoinMarketCap, retaining the sector's valuation at $1.99 trillion (roughly Rs. 1,67,06,964 crore) for the third consecutive day.

USD Coin, Dogecoin, and Cardano emerged among profit-making cryptocurrencies on Friday. Polkadot, Litecoin, and Bitcoin SV also managed to hold onto minor gains on the price chart.

“The upcoming release of US payroll data is eagerly anticipated by investors, as it could influence the Federal Reserve's decision on the size of the potential interest rate cut this month.
