Your Weekly Crypto Recap: Bitcoin (BTC) Neared $80K as US & Iran Extended Ceasefire It was a week of geopolitics, rejections, and resilient altcoins. From Bitcoin briefly kissing $79,800 to Dogecoin stealing the spotlight, here's your full weekly crypto recap (April 18–24). Bitcoin (BTC): So Close, Yet So Far Bitcoin opened the week near $73K, surged past $78K on the ceasefire news, and tapped $79,800 – just $200 shy of the psychological $80K milestone. However, sellers defended the level, pushing BTC back to end the week at $77,200. Ethereum (ETH): Holding the Breakout ETH broke out of a major ascending triangle, reclaimed $2,500, and traded as high as $2,600 before cooling to $2,520. Bitcoin came within striking distance of $80K but was rejected – for now. Altcoins like DOGE and XLM stole the show, while XRP and SHIB made quiet gains. The real test comes next week with the CLARITY Act markup and FOMC meeting. Stay sharp. #Bitcoin #Ethereum #Dogecoin #XRP #CryptoRecap #CryptoNews #crypto #defi #web3 #Altcoins #Ceasefire
