The altcoin market had been relatively stable in recent days, with Ethereum hovering around the $1,200 mark for the past week. However, the market has taken a turn for the worse today, with several major altcoins experiencing significant price drops.

It remains to be seen whether these declines are a temporary blip or a sign of further troubles to come in the altcoin market. Investors will be watching closely to see how the market recovers in the coming days.
