It’s safe to say that the last few days have been nothing short of turbulent for Bitcoin.

In a span of about 24 hours, it surged by more than 40%, rising as high as $10,350. Predictably, a correction soon followed. Bitcoin shed about $1,000, as its price fell to around $9,400. Bitcoin’s dominance rate also increased notably. Prior to the latest surge, Bitcoin’s share of the overall crypto market was around 65.5%, and it rose as high as 68.6% before pulling back to 67.9%.
