## Weekly Trend Overview
In the past week, impacted by the <a href="/price/xrp-xrp" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">XRP</a> growth trend and the ruling of the List of courts of the United States, the top 100 cryptocurrency project has shown a certain growth trend. However, except for a few currencies that have maintained continuous price increases, 80% of the total price of XRP has continued to show a slight downward trend. In the past seven days, the overall price of XRP has increased by about 1 percentage point.

Recently, due to the impact of various events from the SEC and other regulatory authorities and crypto companies, the cryptocurrency market continued the positive information impact of the Ripple case this week after maintaining basic stability. At the beginning of this week, the case continued to show an upward trend last week. However, affected by the news of the arrest of the founder of Multichain, the market soon fell into a standstill and entered a new round of short trading cycles again.

The weekly fluctuations of BTC and ETH are -4.8% and -5.1%, with tokens such as MATIC and LTC experiencing a decline of over 10%. XRP achieved a high daily growth rate of over 90%, with a relatively high increase.

Up to now, the market value of the global cryptocurrency has reached $1.24 trillion, with little overall change in this quarter. The crypto market is still in a relatively stable market cycle, but all kinds of favorable information appear from time to time. It can be predicted that the whole market is in a leading period facing changes.

## Crypto Market Highlights  
⭐️In the past week, the crypto market has remained relatively stable. Although some projects have achieved short-term gains, overall, it is still in a relatively neutral market environment. But the turning point of the Ripple vs. SEC case will have a significant impact, which is conducive to the crypto market quickly emerging from the shadow of SEC-related events in the future.

⭐️The <a href="/price/link-ln" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">LINK price</a> has continued to rise in the past week, increasing over 20%. Although it is not as significant as the impact brought by XRP, its trend is worthy of continuous attention in the near future.

ETH continued the trend of linking with BTC last week, repeating in the $1,800 to $2,000 range. Since reaching the $2,030 level last Thursday, it has been under pressure and has fallen back. The market has continued to form a volatile downward trend, but has not continued to break up, but quickly emerged from the downward trend.

The trend continues to fluctuate within the range, gradually stabilizing in magnitude. Currently, ETH is in the recovery stage and is stabilizing in the $1,880 region.
## Web3 Project Trend
In this week, all seven types of project changes have shown a downward trend, mainly with a small margin. The valuation and trading volume of most industries have shown a negative trend, neither good nor bad. However, through a week of hot spot backtracking, it is evident that although the crypto market is still in a declining stage, there are also hot projects and revenue channels. Each growth point is seeking a driving force environment, so it can be sustained in the short term. The market may show ups and downs for a long period of time in the future.
