As of November 7th, Tuesday, there is no one-way movement in cryptocurrencies, creating complex emotions among investors. Despite the decline in Bitcoin price, some altcoins have diverged, indicating that investors may have shifted their focus to altcoins rather than Bitcoin.

Bitcoin and Altcoins: Current Situation
