The BTC on Monday dropped to 27,455 USD. Over the week, the coin has lost 8.21%.
Regardless of such a feeble and dull decline, in the medium run, the BTC still has good chances for recovery. An eye should be kept on the support area between 26,500 and 27,000 USD. Active buying might start from there.

For the BTC to start growing again, it needs to secure above 28,900 USD.
The capitalisation of the crypto market keeps falling and currently amounts to 1.157 trillion USD. The BTC share has risen to 45.9%, and the ETH share has dropped to 19.1%.
