The crypto market continues with its retracement from yesterday, with a 1.5% decline in the total market cap. However, the value is $ 1.21 trillion, and BTC’s market cap is $562 billion.

Bitcoin has dropped below the $29,000 level to trade at $28,867. However, it still controls a significant market share, with its dominance at 46.38%.

Although BTC is in the red, some altcoins and memecoins still record impressive gains today. Here is a list of the top gainers and exciting developments within their ecosystem likely driving their recent gains.

Bitcoin Gold (BTG)

Bitcoin Gold (BTG) shows a slight retracement to trade $17.48, a 6.5% decline in its price in the last 24 hours. However, its seven-day gain shows 27.5% on its price, and its one-month gain is 5.2%.

There is no known reason for the sudden spike in BTG’s price. However, crypto influencer Satoshi Talks, in a Tweet, noted that BTG surged 37% in 24 hours to trade at $19, recording its highest single day since July 2022 on July 31, 2023.

He believes that while the exact reason for the rally remains mysterious, the rising interest in smaller tokens, including memecoins, might be driving the present gains.

The network seems to have never recovered from the double spend attack on 51% of its framework, making its surge take investors by surprise.

BTG Retraces Slightly As Bulls Retain Control

BTG is trading in an uptrend on the daily chart despite the formation of a red candle. Its bull run on July 31 moved its price to the $19 level, but it has retraced to $17 today.

The $17.28 price level supports its price as it attempts to break above the $21.44 resistance level. It is trading above its 50-day and 200-day Simple Moving Averages (SMA), confirming the bullish sentiment on the chart today.

Its Relative Strength Index (RSI) value is 61.45, close to the overbought region of 70. The RSI dropped sharply today to renter the channel as the buying pressure slowly declines. However, the retracement could be temporary. BTG’s Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) is above its signal line, also expressing a bullish sentiment.

The green Histogram bars are fading, hinting at a price decline. BTG will likely retrace in the short term before it recovers to the upside if the bulls resume their rally.

Rocket Pool (RPL)

RPL is trading at $30.17, an increase of 3.6% on its price in the last 24 hours. The decentralized staking pool relies on Ethereum and is probably benefitting from developments in its ecosystem.

According to Rocketpool’s biweekly update on July 18, rETH supply increased by 3.7% to 479,668, an annual growth of 97%. Also, the active Minipool count increased by 2.2%, and the node operator count grew by 1.7% to 3,052.

These updates show ecosystem growth and are likely the reason behind the price gains for the token.

RPL Shows Signs Of Recovery Today

RPL is rallying on the daily chart to shake off pressure from the bears. It found support at the $28.94 price level as it attempts to break above the $32.07 resistance.

Its candle today has a long upper wick showing that the bulls are attempting a break above its closest resistance level. However, it is still trading in the lower region of the Donchian Channel (DC), expressing a bearish sentiment. Despite the bearish outlook, the candle’s wick is in the upper region of the DC, hinting at a possible price recovery.

Also, its RSI value is 36.59, close to the oversold region of 30. The RSI indicator is rising as the bulls seek to push the asset to the buy zone.

The MACD confirms the recovery today, crossing above the signal line and expressing a bullish sentiment confirmed by the green Histogram bars. RPL will likely rally in the short term if the bulls uphold its price momentum.

Stacks (STX)

Stacks is trading at $0.598 with a 0.6% gain on its price in the last 24 hours. Its 7-day gains are modest, with a 1.7% increase recorded.

According to a Twitter thread on July 27, Bitcoin functions best with the help of Stacks. Using its smart contract capabilities, the full BTC potential can be unlocked.

According to their Tweets, Bitcoin relies on scaling solutions to overcome several limitations, such as network congestion and high transaction fees.

These solutions deliver scalability, smart contract programmability, and an improved user experience.

The two major Bitcoin scaling solutions are Layer 2’s (L2) and sidechains. Sidechains are scaling solutions that operate parallel to the Layer 1 (L1) parent chain. It allows users to move assets from the L1 to the side chain.

Stacks focuses on DeFi, NFT, and smart contracts using a consensus mechanism linked to Bitcoin that empowers users to stake the $STX token and mine BTC.

The developers teased the incoming launch of a two-way peg protocol for sBTC tokens enabling BTC holders to participate in the ecosystem without selling their BTC tokens.

Also, each sBTC token is backed by an equivalent amount of Bitcoin held in a transparent smart contract. Stacks, in a bid to give back to its growing community, is hosting a Bitcoin pitch competition tagged Ready Layer 2.

It is the first ever Bitcoin Layer 2-focused pitch competition where users submit their best ideas to win prizes. The winner will take home $5,000 cash or crypto and other incentives, while the second and third runner-ups will receive consolation prizes.

Additionally, Stacks is hosting a Bitcoin Builder’s Primer course to help beginners tap the vast potentials of BTC’s ecosystem and develop modern DApps. These activities within the Stacks ecosystem likely drive its positive price performance in the past week.

STX Under Bearish Pressure

STX is in a sideways trend today, forming a green candle as more traders enter long positions in the market. It found vital support at the $0.58 level, but the bears at the $0.61 price level keep on limiting their price gains.

It is trading close to the lower band of the Bollinger Band (BB); the constriction of the band hints at a price drop ahead for the token. Its RSI value is 39.67, close to the oversold region 30, also confirming the prevalent bearish pressure today.

The MACD indicator has dropped below the signal line, confirming the return of the bears. However, the Histogram bars are fading off, suggesting that the retracement might be for the short-term. STX will likely overcome the bearish pressure to rally again in the coming days.
