Bitcoin (BTC)

Bitcoin stands alone as crypto's only true store of value, rallying 4.4% in the past week to $78,261 while most altcoins bleed. This price action decisively outperforms #2 Ethereum, which posted a weekly decline of 0.44%. Bitcoin's dominance is further underscored by its 24-hour trade volume exceeding $42 billion, a figure that's more than double the average daily volume of the next three coins combined.
