Bitcoin (BTC) is consolidating within a narrow range, trading between $101,500 and $102,200, after a 0.9% decline last week. The cryptocurrency faces strong selling pressure, with key support at $102,000 and resistance at $105,050. A drop below $102,000 could see BTC testing lower levels around $100,600 to $101,200. In contrast, AlphaPepe (ALPE), a meme coin on the Binance Smart Chain, is experiencing a surge in retail demand. The coin has raised nearly $400,000 in its presale, attracting over 3,500 holders. AlphaPepe's growth is fueled by its structured model, offering instant token delivery, weekly price adjustments, and a 10% referral reward, appealing to retail investors seeking speculative opportunities alongside core assets like XRP.
