Bitcoin was edging lower on Friday, but all signs point to the cryptocurrency rallying again next week.

The world's largest token by market capitalization was down 0.8% to $106,944 over the past 24 hours, according to data from CoinDesk. It's now trading about $5,000, or 5%, off the all-time high it hit in May.

Traders were likely taking the opportunity to lock in profit after a strong spell. Catalysts including the weak U.S. dollar, inflows into exchange-traded funds, and regulatory developments ought to carry on boosting Bitcoin after a brief dip.

Other digital assets were also sliding on Friday. Ethereum, Solana, and XRP were among the tokens trading in the red, according to data from the crypto exchange Kraken.
