However, the predominantly bearish sentiment quickly returned, and the asset slumped below $64,000 that Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Its recovery began last weekend and intensified on Monday when bitcoin pumped to $65,600 on a couple of occasions. However, it couldn\u2019t keep climbing and dumped to $62,700 a day later as investors de-risked ahead of the key FOMC meeting. More volatility ensued before and after the event as the Fed ultimately <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-price-tumbles-to-2-week-low-as-fed-and-boj-keep-rates-unchanged-weekly-crypto-recap\/\">left the rates unchanged<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin began a more profound recovery on Thursday and Friday morning, jumping to $65,500 once again. A familiar scenario repeated, though, as the bears resumed control and drove it south to its lowest position since July 14 at $62,400.<\/p>\n<p>The bulls managed to step up and helped BTC recover some ground to the current $63,000, but <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/btc-price-warning-4-reasons-bitcoin-could-drop-further-next-week\/\">there are some warning signs<\/a> about another leg down in the making. Its market cap is down to $1.265 trillion on CG, while its dominance over the alts has settled at 56%.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1444514\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1444514\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/BTCUSD-Aug-1.png\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1444514\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BTCUSD Aug 1.

PUMP (9%) and PI (5%) follow suit.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, most of the larger-cap alts are in the red. ETH is down by over 1%, and so are BNB and XRP. HYPE has dumped by another 5% to $52. RAIN has lost almost 3% of value, while UNI and AAVE have slumped by more than 6%.
