## Weekly Trend Overview
This week, the cryptocurrency market showed a general upward trend, with significant upward fluctuations. The prices of most mainstream cryptocurrency projects have generally increased, and currently, cryptocurrency users generally hold a bearish and volatile attitude. The current total market funding is $1.3 trillion, the highest level since the beginning of this year.

The cryptocurrency projects of the Top 100 saw a general increase throughout the week, with most mainstream currencies experiencing upward trends starting from Monday. The trend of BTC is especially crucial, which has driven the ETH and counterfeit currency markets, thereby affecting the overall market trend. Currently, over half of the funds in the encryption market are concentrated in BTC, accounting for over 52%, and the price has shown a downward trend.

The weekly price increases for BTC and ETH have reached 18.7% and 14.4%. Among the cryptocurrency projects ranked 100, the MEME project PEPE rapidly increased, reaching 96.4% within a week. It is currently in a volatile trend and can continue to be monitored in the future.

Overall, the performance of the cryptocurrency market this week confirmed the bullish trend forecast of last week. The cyclical fluctuations in the market itself, coupled with the emergence of positive news about BTC on the news side, directly affected the price performance of the coin this week and triggered an overall upward trend in the market.

The price performance of BTC and ETH showed a strong binding relationship this week. At present, the price of BTC remains fluctuating around $34,000, while the price of ETH is currently fluctuating around $1,800. Both currencies have entered a new cycle this week, but due to the significant short-term increase, there is a certain probability of price correction in the future. Therefore, it is necessary to keep an eye on the news.

As of now, the global cryptocurrency market value has rebounded to $1.3 trillion, with the entire market falling by about 0.6% in 24 hours, an increase of 15% compared to last week's $11,300.

## BTC & ETH Weekly Performance
### Bitcoin (BTC)
![](https://gimg2.gateimg.com/image/article/16983733212.png)
(Data Courtesy Of TradingView)

The high point of BTC prices this week was $35,212. In last week's price forecast for BTC, a significant increase in BTC prices this week was already a high-probability event. However, due to the positive news, the actual increase in BTC exceeded many people's bullish expectations, reaching the range of $35,000, with a significant increase. However, there has been a certain degree of price correction, slightly fluctuating at $34,000.

The actual price trend of BTC this week is equivalent to the overall trend of the crypto market. At the closing stage last week, the key point for BTC prices to return to $30,000 was most bullish expectations. Combined with the impact of the market both inside and outside this week, the upward trend further intensified, quickly entering the price range above 34,000 and maintaining it. The market trend driven by BTC is highly likely to be a slightly longer-lasting bull market, which may last for a few weeks. There is a possibility of a certain degree of price correction in the future. If it occurs, the probability of falling into the $32,000-$33,000 range is high.

### Ether (ETH)

(Data Courtesy Of TradingView)

ETH's trend this week has maintained strong consistency with BTC, and its price has finally risen to a clear price range, reaching a high point of around $1,860. Currently, ETH's price remains fluctuating around $1,800.

Although the price trend of ETH has finally begun to show a clear upward trend this week, the stock of various trading platforms is currently low, indicating that the liquidity of the coin has not been further released. There is still a lot of room for price increase in the current market cycle, and the future trend can be further bullish.

## Web3 Project Trend

However, most of them have already entered a new fluctuation cycle.
