Bearish bandwagon onboards Polkadot [DOT]; $30 still out of DOT’s reach?

Recovery was still inaccessible for the crypto market. However, few assets like Polkadot [DOT], Binance Coin [BNB], and Dogecoin [DOGE] were seen making efforts towards the change in the ongoing market sentiment. All the other coins were smeared in red. With the entire market riding the bearish wave, a sense of positivity seemed obliged.

Bitcoin [BTC] was still stuck below $45K. The king coin could take a while before it reaches $50K, the market speculated. Apart from its price, the asset’s market cap was also taking a hit. The market cap of the world’s largest cryptocurrency had plummeted below $800 billion. During press time, it was at $791 billion which further impacted the overall market cap of the crypto-verse, which dropped to $1.87 trillion.

The fairly new cryptocurrency, Polkadot [DOT] was seen among the bears. The altcoin endured a massive fall and has been trying long and hard to move over the next zone. However, the constant invasion of the bear has been making it difficult for the altcoin. At the time of writing, DOT was trading for $27.92 with a 24-hour negative price change of 3.40%. Over the previous seven days, DOT experienced a loss of about 6.67%.

With regard to its market cap, DOT slipped down the crypto ladder. The altcoin’s market cap was noted at $31 billion which further aided in recognizing it as the ninth-largest coin.
