While BTC has maintained its price above $93,000 (roughly Rs. 79 lakh) for over 48 hours, the prices of most altcoins are fluctuating, due to the ongoing market volatility.“Bitcoin opened the day's trade on a bullish note and faced a minor pullback. Besides, the altcoins are also facing some bearish heat but have managed to sustain above the gains. This hints towards a rise in the strength of the bulls, who are currently a little passive but may initiate a fresh rally soon,” the CoinDCX Research Team told Gadgets 360.Ether logged small losses (less than one percent) on national and international exchanges on Friday.
