Beneath the surface the rally has narrowed sharply, with 38 of the 100 CoinDesk 100 constituents lower on the day, even as the index itself rose 0.67% to 1,926.99. Over the rolling 24 hours the picture is still broad, 87 higher and 13 lower, which places the weakening firmly in the past few hours rather than on Tuesday.
The majors have split rather than moved together, XRP (XRP) adding 3.3% to $1.62 and bitcoin cash 2.0% to $351.59, while ether slipped 0.089% to $2,750.24 as chainlink lost 0.0053%.
