Bitcoin is down by around 1% over the last day. The leading coin is trading close to equities as the SP500 (-0.21%) and Nasdaq (-0.31%) trade flat in the red over the same period.

Ethereum is holding onto support around $2,000, further disproving rumours of inevitable sell pressure after the successful Shanghai upgrade last week.

Many third-gen cryptos have continued adding green candles from last week, most notably Solana (+4.43%) and Avalanche (+6.84%).

Investors are watching corporate earnings from the US in the coming days for an indication on the health of the US economy.
