Crypto Market Maintains Steady Range Amid Altcoin Rotation

The cryptocurrency market has been characterized by low volatility over the past four days, with Bitcoin and Ether stuck in a tight trading range between $76,100 and $78,000 for BTC, and stable notional open interest (OI) near $128 billion. This lack of movement has allowed some altcoins to benefit from speculative buying, particularly in the AI sector.

Near Protocol's $NEAR saw a notable surge of 28.5% on Friday, while FET posted an 11.4% gain. Conversely, privacy coins DASH, ZEC, and XMR experienced sell pressure, indicating sector rotation is underway.
