UNI, CC, NIGHT, and ICP have emerged as the biggest gainers today.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"btc-tapped-89k\">BTC Tapped $89K<\/h2>\n<p>The past week was <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/crypto-markets-brace-for-volatility-amid-massive-week-ahead-for-economic-data\/\">anticipated<\/a> to be a volatile one, and it was. It all began on Monday afternoon when BTC plunged from $90,000 to under $86,000 within just a few hours. After a minor rebound to $88,000, the asset went on the offensive on Wednesday and shot up to $90,400.<\/p>\n<p>However, that was another fake-out as the bears immediately regained control and pushed it south to under $85,500. Then came Thursday, and the release of the US CPI data for November was <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoins-price-slumps-before-christmas-despite-strong-cpi-data-your-weekly-crypto-recap\/\">much better than expected<\/a>. BTC surged to $89,500, but the rejection scenario repeated.<\/p>\n<p>This time, the subsequent retracement drove the cryptocurrency to a multi-month low of $84,500. Nevertheless, another relief rally followed, and BTC spiked to $89,500 on Friday. Even though it was stopped there, it has <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/zec-charts-another-double-digit-increase-as-btc-defends-88k-level-weekend-watch\/\">remained<\/a> mostly above $88,000 and briefly tapped $89,000 earlier today.<\/p>\n<p>Its market cap has neared $1.770 trillion, while its dominance over the alts is well above 57%.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1423925\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1423925\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-21.png\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1423925\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BTCUSD Dec 21.

ETH has neared $3,000, BNB is close to $860, while XRP remains above $1.90. SOL, ADA, BCH, LINK, ZEC, and DOGE are slightly in the red, while XMR and TRX are up by 2-3%.<\/p>\n<p>NIGHT has jumped the most from the top 100 altcoins, surging by over 30% to $0.09.
