Bitcoin is holding key support at $6,400 and has lost 3.8% on the day to trade at just below this level.

Currently trading at $7.08, EOS is down from $7.65 this time yesterday and down even further from $8.90 this time last week and way down almost 40% from $11.30 this time last month. Stellar is the next biggest loser in the top ten today with a 5.2% drop to $0.189. Looking at the top twenty Tezos has finally taken a hit with the largest drop of 10%. XTZ has defied the drop by gaining over the past four days but the momentum has now exhausted and it has fallen back to $2.08 from $2.35 this time yesterday. VeChain is also having a bad day with a 6.4% drop as is Ontology losing 7% on the day. Bitcoin Gold rounds out the top 30 with a 10% decline.

Kucoin Shares is also defying the drop with as 12.6% rise to $3.21. Total crypto market capitalization has fallen 4.5% on the day to $252 billion. Volume has remained stable at $13 billion over the past 24 hours.
