Ethereum drops 4.5%
Ethereum (ETH) continued to move very cautiously upwards last week, but that came to an end last night. The ether price failed to hold at $3,070 and then dropped slightly below $3,000 but appeared to be holding out for a while. However, this morning, ETH plummeted to $2,900, its lowest price in nearly a month. ETH is therefore down 4.5% today and almost 10% down compared to a week ago.

Of the largest altcoins, it is the binance coin (BNB) that holds up best. Still, BNB plummets all the way back to $400, putting the price down by 3.5%. Solana (SOL) drops by no less than 5.5%, bringing the price back below $100 to $96.5. Terra (LUNA) also loses 5.5% of its value and now stands at $77. Ripple (XRP) is even down 5.7% to $0.736.
AVAX, DOGE, SHIB, ADA, DOT drop even harder
Avalanche (AVAX) is already down 6% and currently stands at $73. Dogecoin (DOGE) loses 6.2% of its value and drops to $0.135. Shiba inu (SHIB) is also down 6.2%, falling to $0.00002416. Cardano (ADA) is down a whopping 6.8% in the last 24 hours and currently stands at $0.88. Polkadot (DOT) is this time the biggest loser among the largest crypto and is 7% in the min. DOT is still holding above $17.
Top 100 crypto hardest fallers
Helium (HNT), ecash (XEC), gala (GALA), chiliz (CHZ), theta (THETA), synthetix (SNX), enjin coin (ENJ), chainlink (LINK), axie infinity (AXS), internet computer ( ICP), vechain (VET), tezos (XTZ), bitcoin cash (BCH), convex finance (CVX) and thorchain (RUNE) are all down 8% or more this morning.

Top 100 crypto hardest risers
However, not everything is in the red. Frax share (FXS) is up a cautious 2% and newcomer chain (XCN) is up 6.7%, but the USD 0.115 was still too much this morning. Stacks (STX) just skyrocketed this morning, rising 8.8% to $115. Then decred is still worth mentioning. The DCR race also made a huge jump and briefly entered the top 100. However, the rate was rejected at $80 and is falling sharply again this morning. Nevertheless, DCR is still 18% in the plus and is currently at position 101.
