## Weekly Trend Overview
The trend of the crypto market has cooled down this week, and overall it has remained flat, with relatively small fluctuations in the prices of several mainstream currencies. However, after the approval of BTC spot ETFs, the trading volume has exceeded $10 billion this week, and with the approaching halving date of BTC, there should be a wave of bullish market trends from top to bottom in the future. At present, the crypto market remains at around $1.64 trillion, a decrease in total funds compared to the same period last week. Except for the main cryptocurrencies that were able to continue the trend of last weekend's crypto prices during the opening phase, the subsequent sell-out further exacerbated the overall market downturn, and market sentiment was also directly affected.

The top 100 crypto projects have a rise and fall ratio of 2:8 within a week, showing a trend of overall decline. The BTC price has fallen by more than 10% within a week and has now fallen below the $42,000 level. The highest point in the week is at $46,934 during the opening period. ETH reached a one week high of $2,701, and the subsequent decline is also quite significant. Currently, it remains fluctuating around $2,487. Not only BTC and ETH, but also the overall performance of the top 100 cryptocurrencies has shown a general downward trend, which is a direct reflection of market sentiment at present. Continuous market smashing actions are continuing, and the main tone of this market cycle should be basically maintained in this state.

The prices of BTC and ETH have fluctuated by -10.01% and -4.45% in a week. Siacion (SC) saw a 7-day increase of 28.48% this week, making it the currency with the largest increase in the market. Compared to the previous weeks of various currencies, the price increase of SC due to project and ecosystem actions was relatively small.

The overall decline in the crypto market has been very significant this week, with a total market value decrease of over $5 million compared to the same period last week. It seems that there is a short-term market trend after the approval of BTC spot ETFs.

## Crypto Market Highlights  
⭐️In the past week, the crypto market has experienced relatively small fluctuations, and there is a lack of influential information at the news level. The market trend is mainly focused on the current market cycle trend, and the overall performance is that most currencies have shown a clear downward trend, and the total amount of funds in the market has also dropped significantly. From the current stage, due to the influence of news factors on the previous upward trend of various currencies, they have risen rapidly in the short term. The subsequent large-scale increase in volume, coupled with the unexpected large-scale influx, has led to a generally bearish sentiment in the crypto market as a whole.

⭐️In the overall downward trend of the market this week, the projects with significant gains were mainly driven by the market sentiment triggered by their own actions. Although SC ranked the highest in the week, reaching around 28%, its market share is still very small, belonging to a small-scale market of secondary currencies. The high point of the currency's price in a week exceeded $0.012, which is indeed a significant increase compared to the low point of $0.085.

## BTC & ETH Weekly Performance
### Bitcoin (BTC)

The price of BTC has mostly fluctuated within the range of $42,000-$43,000 this week, with a high point of $43,500. Currently, BTC has entered a rapid downward trend, with prices falling below $42,000. However, the probability of falling below $41,000 is relatively small, and the key price support level remains strong.

Analysis suggests that the currency price trend of BTC this week has seen a further decline in price, based on the rapid decline in the closing stage last weekend. The market crash is still ongoing, and further downward trends may not be ruled out. However, the standard line of $40,000 currently does not have the possibility of falling below it. Coupled with the rapid increase in ETF trading volume, there is a considerable probability that BTC prices will rebound in the future.

### Ether (ETH)

(Data Courtesy Of TradingView)

The price trend of ETH this week entered a stable state after showing an upward trend last week, and has fallen slightly this week. The overall price has not been able to maintain a sustained operation above $2,600. Although the weekly high point reached $2,701, the subsequent trend is mainly characterized by relatively stable fluctuations. After entering the statistical period, it began to decline further and currently maintains a continuous fluctuation of around $2,460.

Analysis suggests that the ETH coin price showed a relatively different upward trend last week, and has continued to rise due to the shift in market hotspots. After entering this week, due to the overall impact of the market and the lack of related hot topics, although the trading volume of the Ethereum ecosystem reached a new high, the price increase of ETH itself was clearly weak, and began to show a downward trend of volatility, with a high probability of a subsequent replenishment market.

## Web3 Project Trend
This week, the total market value of the seven categories of projects fell across the board. Due to the overall market sentiment, projects on various tracks generally showed a downward trend within the week, and the increase in TOP projects was also relatively limited. Overall, the current crypto market is in a clear downward cycle and needs to be improved through subsequent news factors and changes in market sentiment.
