Bitcoin price today recorded a peak of $51,765.77, up 3.62% from 24 hours ago. Bitcoin closed out the weekend with a jump to $51,911, its highest price since May 12th.

Now, it seems that Bitcoin is struggling to sustain above $51,700 but that has not stopped the altcoins from following in ETH footsteps after the top-ranked altcoin hit $4,000 on September 3. This has pushed Ether’s market dominance above 20% while Bitcoin’s dominance has shrunk to 41.1%.
