The cryptocurrency market has seen some major changes over the last several weeks, with support breaks and new resistance formations coming imminently. Apart from bitcoin’s wild swings, altcoins like bitcoin cash have also become a prominent player in the current financial ecosystem.
Bitcoin’s hard fork was busy fending off competition from Bitcoin SV when the market crash started due to the coronavirus outbreak. In the past week, Bitcoin Cash has been one of the cryptocurrencies involved in up-down price moves.
At press time, BCH was trading for $216.44 with a total market cap of $3.98 billion. The cryptocurrency was holding the 5th position on the charts with a 24-hour market volume of $2.8 billion. Some analysts believe that Bitcoin Cash needs some sort of volume injection as multiple markets were drying up at the moment.
A majority of BCH’s price action depends on Bitcoin, just like other altcoins. As long as Bitcoin does not surge significantly, holders need to be wary of BCH price surges.
