## Weekly Trend Overview
The overall <a href="/ja/price" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">crypto market</a> trend has shown a relatively obvious fluctuation this week, with most mainstream coins showing a trend of first rising and then falling. However, driven by institutions, the prices of several key mainstream coins have reached recent highs, although subsequent declines are more common. This is a regular fluctuation cycle after the market has recently entered the recovery stage. Most of the major coin prices have fallen compared to the opening price, and the overall market value has declined to a certain extent. The information related to the Federal Reserve's interest rate hike this week is clear, and the probability of a rate hike is high, which has a certain positive impact on the expectations of the crypto market. The impact of the arrest of the founder of Telegram on the market is relatively unfavorable. The overall crypto market remains above $20,000, with prices generally falling within a week and the market maintaining a volatile cycle. The overall market value growth of the crypto market has slightly declined compared to the same period last week, reaching around $2.09 trillion, a decrease of 0.25% within 24 hours. The market sentiment remains around 46. The trend of key mainstream coins this week has fallen significantly, and a new round of price recovery is expected to occur during the weekend closing period.

Compared to last week, the performance of the crypto market this week has been mainly characterized by a significant price drop after a significant increase during the closing period previous weekend. The overall market remains relatively volatile, and although several key coins have reached recent price highs, it is difficult to maintain the overall trend. Currently, the rise/fall ratio of mainstream coins within a week is 2:8, and most mainstream coins are showing a slight decline. The <a href="/ja/price/bitcoin-btc" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">BTC price</a> approached $65,000 within a week, but subsequently experienced a rapid decline due to overall market influence, with a weekly drop of around 1.7%. Currently, the price remains around $59,557. ETH has experienced a weekly decline of around 3.6% and is currently hovering around $2,530.

The market's overall performance this week is mainly characterized by a decline, with most mainstream coins showing relatively small weekly gains. POPCAT's 7-day increase has reached around 16%, and the price curve fluctuates. It has the largest increase among mainstream coins this week, and the coin price is currently maintained at around $0.6728.

The probability of the overall crypto market rebounding this weekend is relatively high, and a clear signal is expected during the weekend, but the overall amplitude will still be controlled within a small range.

(Data Courtesy Of TradingView)
The overall price of BTC has rebounded from above $64,000 to around $60,000 this week. The price fluctuates around the key level of $60,000, mainly within the range of $59,000-61,000. The price of BTC has returned to the same period last week, showing a sustained fluctuation trend. BTC is likely to show a fluctuating rebound trend in the future this week, with a low probability of a significant increase, but a high probability of returning to above the $60,000 price range. The high point of BTC's weekly price is around $65,000, while the low point is around $57,800, similar to last week's period.

Analysis suggests that various factors have influenced BTC's price fluctuations this week and are largely in line with the mainstream market trend. After the BTC price reached its recent high this week, the overall market was greatly affected by news factors, resulting in a large-scale decline in the BTC price in a short period of time. This has a significant impact on the BTC price. Although the actual price performance of BTC is still relatively volatile at present, the scale of funds in spot ETFs continues to expand, and the probability of a significant upward trend in the future is relatively high.

###Ethereum (ETH)

ETH is in a relatively obvious fluctuation stage, but the price remains around the $25,500 level and continues to rise and fall.

Analysis suggests that the performance of the ETH coin price this week is influenced by a combination of news factors and market volatility, as well as the poor performance of spot ETFs. The overall crypto market is showing a downward trend, and ETH follows the market's trend. In the short term, the coin price is likely to continue fluctuating between $2,500 and $2,600.
