Despite the fact that the altcoin market managed to significantly push Bitcoin’s dominance to 62.7% this month, this asset class is still far behind. While many alts posted significant gains over the last month, most of them quickly retraced to below their support levels.
Chainlink [LINK]
LINK, the cryptocurrency powering blockchain project Chainlink, attempted to break its 2019 high this month after it significantly rose to breach critical resistances along the way. However, the coin soon suffered a decline of 16.31% after it fell from $4.9 to $4.1 over the past week.
At press time, the coin, which was the best performer in USD markets during 2019, was down by 3.72% over the last 24-hours and was priced at $4.26 as the bulls struggled to retain their previous glory. Additionally, LINK held a market cap of $1.49 billion and a 24-hour trading volume of $319.4 million.
