Recall that the asset slumped from over $114,000 to under $109,000 by September 26 as it charted a multi-week low.<\/p>\n<p>That support managed to hold, and BTC spent most of the weekend trading sideways below $110,000. The bulls finally stepped up on Monday and pushed the cryptocurrency beyond that level to $112,500. After hitting some resistance there, bitcoin went on the offensive once more and neared $115,000 later during the day.<\/p>\n<p>It was stopped there at first and <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-price-stopped-at-115k-as-hype-and-aster-plunge-hard-market-watch\/\">pushed south<\/a> by over two grand to under $113,000. It stood there for a while, but the actual breakout took place earlier today after the US government <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/no-reaction-from-crypto-markets-as-us-govt-shuts-down\/\">shut down<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin jumped from that level to a two-week high of over $116,500, charted minutes ago. This surge has pushed its market cap to beyond $2.320 trillion on CG, while its dominance over the alts sits at 56.7%.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1414779\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1414779\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1414779\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BTC\/USD.

Ethereum has jumped to $4,300 after a 4% daily increase, XRP trades above $2.90, while BNB remains well beyond $1,000. Even more impressive gains come from the likes of SOL, DOGE, ADA, AVAX, HYPE, SOL, XLM, BCH, and SHIB.<\/p>\n<p>The top performers from the largest 100 alts are ZEC, which has skyrocketed by more than 40%, PUMP, which is up by over 27%, and PENGU, which has jumped by 12%.<\/p>\n<p>The total crypto market cap has added over $100 billion since yesterday&#8217;s low and has soared to $4.1 trillion on CG.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1414781\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1414781\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1414781\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-01-130731-300x137.png\" alt=\"Cryptocurrency Market Overview.
