Crypto Prices Take Hit on March 31, 2025: Bitcoin Dives, ETH and Altcoins Slump

The cryptocurrency market started the week with volatility, as Bitcoin prices continued their downward trend. On March 31, 2025, Bitcoin dropped below $80,000, potentially losing over $80,000 in value. This follows a lack of bullish news and anticipation for trading activity during US opening hours contributing to the selling pressure. Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and XRP are also seeing significant drops. While ETH dipped by 3%, SOL is down over 13% for the week. XRP has dropped 5%. Meanwhile, market volatility led a mixed bag of results in altcoins. Safe’s token rose 8%, while EOS and Zcash gained 6%, but most other major coins remain relatively flat or have experienced losses exceeding 10%. The market cap remains at $2.65 trillion as trading volume is around $64.24 billion.
