QTUM, NEM, Tron Price: Altcoins may be reverting back to 2020 lows
Bitcoin’s dominance in the cryptocurrency space stood at 65.3%, at press time, despite a major fall in the price of the king coin. As the alpha of the market, Bitcoin’s price movement was closely followed by the rest of the crypto-asset market, which is why, many cryptocurrencies were quick to follow BTC’s lead and record losses of their own.
