Market sentiment appeared universally negative across the cryptocurrency sector, as not a single asset among the CoinDesk 20 managed to post gains during the period. The index, which serves as a benchmark for cryptocurrency market performance, shed 123.93 points since 4 p.m. ET on Thursday.

Bitcoin (BTC) demonstrated relative resilience amid the broad market decline, posting a 2.5% loss, which positioned it as one of the better performers. Similarly, Bitcoin Cash (BCH) limited its losses to 3.6%, making these two assets the relative outperformers in an otherwise challenging market environment.

At the opposite end of the performance spectrum, Polkadot (POL) and Sui (SUI) recorded identical 8.3% declines, making them the worst-performing assets in the index during this period. The equal percentage drops highlight how selling pressure affected some altcoins more severely than the larger-cap cryptocurrencies.

The CoinDesk 20 Index represents a diverse selection of digital assets and is traded on multiple platforms across various global regions, providing investors with a comprehensive view of market performance in the cryptocurrency sector. The index’s broad-based composition makes its decline particularly significant as an indicator of overall market sentiment.
