Today’s crypto market combined Bitcoin’s $80,000 consolidation with leverage and altcoin dispersion, while security incidents and U.S. policy uncertainty framed the session’s uneven risk profile.

Crypto is range-bound with a fragile downside bias. BTC was flat over 24 hours near $79,820 while 54% of large assets advanced, yet US spot demand remains split: ETFs added 8,300 BTC on the latest session while Coinbase traded at a -0.58% discount. Near-term, broad alt strength can persist, but BTC needs US buying to turn the move durable.
