ZEC and CC lead on the way south.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"btc-below-90k\">BTC Below $90K<\/h2>\n<p>The new month began on the wrong foot yet again for the largest cryptocurrency. The asset had recovered some ground following the November crash and stood above $91,000. However, the bears returned on Monday and initiated a violent leg down that drove BTC to just under $84,000.<\/p>\n<p>After <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-plummets-by-6k-daily-as-these-altcoins-dump-by-double-digits-market-watch\/\">losing<\/a> more than seven grand in hours, bitcoin bounced off almost as quickly and <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/btc-steadies-at-90k-vanguard-joins-the-crypto-craze-eth-fusaka-hard-fork-activated-your-weekly-recap\/\">reclaimed<\/a> the $90,000 line by Tuesday. Moreover, it kept climbing in the following days and challenged the $94,000 resistance on a couple of occasions.<\/p>\n<p>However, it couldn\u2019t penetrate that level, and the subsequent retracement drove it to the $91,000-$92,000 range. That was until Friday, when the bears took control of the market again after the release of the US PCE and Core PCE data.<\/p>\n<p>BTC <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-price-suddenly-drops-to-88k-as-liquidations-surge-to-500m\/\">dumped<\/a> to $88,000 in minutes, dragging the altcoins with it and triggering $500 million in liquidations. It has bounced since then, but it\u2019s still below $90,000 as of press time. Its market cap has dropped to $1.8 trillion, while its dominance over the alts stands above 57% on CG.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1422525\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1422525\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-6.png\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1422525\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BTCUSD Dec 6.

Ethereum is inches above $3,000 after a 3.4% decline, while XRP is close to breaking below $2.00 after another 2% drop. SOL, ADA, LINK, HYPE, DOGE, and XLM are with losses of up to 5%, while SUI, ENA, PEPE, UNI, and DOT have dropped by 6-7%.<\/p>\n<p>Even more profound losses come from ZEC and CC, both of which have dumped by double digits. In contrast, BCH and TRX have posted minor gains.<\/p>\n<p>The total crypto market cap has shed around $60 billion in a day and is down to $3.130 trillion on CG.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1422526\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1422526\" style=\"width: 1879px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Cryptocurrency-Market-Overview-December-6.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1422526 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/02a44cab-b4cd-4ff2-e01b-640dc19f1800\/w=9999\" alt=\"Cryptocurrency Market Overview December 6.
