1) Bitcoin (BTC)
Bitcoin, the first and most well-known cryptocurrency, is a decentralized digital currency that enables peer-to-peer transactions without the need for intermediaries such as banks.
BTC’s short-term trend is currently sideways as buyers struggle to break above the $73,800 resistance. However, on the downside, the support trend line protects the asset from a significant decline.
Demand pressure at this support is evidenced by a lower wick rejection candle on the 4-hour chart that is keeping the coin price above the $67,921 mark. Bitcoin's market capitalization is currently swinging at $1.327 billion, with a 24-hour trading volume of $48.07 billion.
A possible reversal from support would strengthen enough momentum for buyers to re-test the ATH at $73,800.

2) Bonk
BONK is a meme coin inspired by the dog-themed coin trend and launched on the Solana blockchain. BONK stands out as a community-centered project, and its origins are deeply rooted in a “by the people, for the people” ethos.
Following a continued correction in BONK price, a descending wedge pattern may form. Two converging trend lines caused the memecoin's value to plummet from $0.000048 to $0.0000172, marking a 64% decline.
BONK's current market cap is $1.12 billion, but trading volume has surged to $226.3 billion. For buyers to regain control of this asset, they will need to break through the overhead resistance trend line.
If the breakout is successful, the buying pressure will increase again and the BONK price will be set to chase the $0.0000428 target.

3) Render Network (RNDR)
Render Network (RNDR) is a blockchain-based platform that has revolutionized the way GPU computing power is utilized. It operates as a decentralized marketplace, allowing users with excess GPU power to connect with content creators who require rendering power for complex tasks such as 3D rendering, AI, and virtual reality projects.
During the recent market correction, Lender's price fell significantly from $13.84 to the current trading price of $8.1, representing a 41.3% loss. However, RNDR coin maintains its position as a top 40 cryptocurrency with a market capitalization of $3.098 billion.
At the moment, the downtrend is seeking support at the confluence of the uptrend line and the 100-day EMA and the 50% retracement level. Therefore, a constructive rebound show allows buyers to regain momentum and reclaim higher grounds such as $10.3 and $13.7.
Important points
As Bitcoin halving approaches, markets often experience volatility known as a pre-halving consolidation. Some investors may sell their holdings out of fear and uncertainty about how events will affect prices, while investors with stronger convictions may discount their favorite assets. It could be used as an opportunity to accumulate in price.
