## Weekly Trend Overview
The <a href="/pt/price" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_<a href="/pt/price/link-ln" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">link</a>"><a href="/pt/price" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">crypto market</a></a>'s performance continues last week's trend, with the overall market further rising and showing a continuous upward trend. Most mainstream coins remain upward, with <a href="/pt/price/<a href="/price/bitcoin-btc" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">bitcoin</a>-btc" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">Bitcoin</a> returning above $65,000. Overall, the prices of key mainstream coins have further increased, and the market also saw some growth. There is a further upward trend in the crypto market, which continues to fluctuate and rise. The overall market value growth of the crypto market has increased compared to the same period last week, reaching around $2.28 trillion, with a 2.64% increase within 24 hours. The market sentiment has reached around 48, slightly higher than last week. The current trend of key mainstream coins is a continuous upward trend, and it is not ruled out that there will be a certain degree of correction during the weekend closing period, but the probability of maintaining the current volatile upward cycle is higher.

This week, the crypto market continued its upward trend, which was influenced by the global mainstream financial market's large-scale easing and interest rate cuts. The overall market has shown a positive trend in recent times, but it is still in the initial rebound stage, and the subsequent continuous fluctuation trend is still the mainstream trend. The overall market still maintains a relatively obvious growth trend, with mainstream coins experiencing a general increase, and most mainstream coins showing strong upward momentum. The <a href="/pt/price/bitcoin-btc" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link"><a href="/pt/price/bitcoin-btc" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">BTC price</a></a> has risen to around $65,000, with a weekly increase of around 2.68%. Currently, the price remains at $65,240. ETH saw a weekly increase of around 7.48% and is currently hovering around $2,656.

Overall market performance continued to rise this week, but there were differences in the weekly gains of mainstream coins. This week, ENA's 7-day increase reached around 45.56%, with a relatively small fluctuation in the price curve. It has the largest increase among mainstream coins, and its price is currently around $0.3649.

There is a high probability that the overall crypto market will further rise this weekend, but it is expected that there will be a slight correction in the market during the weekend period, and the long-term trend will mainly be further upward.

## Crypto Market Highlights 
⭐️Last week, the crypto market has still been greatly affected by the mainstream financial market's water release, and overall positive expectations are more obvious. Most mainstream coins are affected by the overall upward trend of the market and external factors, continuing the trend of last week and showing a general upward trend across the board. The sentiment in the crypto market has not yet accumulated to an optimistic stage, and there is a high probability that it will continue to fluctuate and rise continuously in the short term. It is expected that the current market situation will continue to show significant changes again during the weekend period.

⭐️There are many mainstream coins that have experienced price increases in the market this week, and the proportion of top growth has remained above 30%. The coins that are among the top in terms of growth have not seen actual increases, but their market value proportion is relatively larger. ENA saw the largest increase, with a seven day increase of around 47.2%, and the current price is around $0.3682. The high point of the coin's price was around $0.38, and it has entered a new oscillation cycle. It is expected to maintain a slight price change in the future.

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

(Data Courtesy Of TradingView)

This week, the overall price of BTC started to fluctuate upwards from around $63,000 last weekend. With the release of mainstream financial markets and the arrival of a relaxed economic environment, BTC also began to follow the historical cycle and showed signs of continuous upward trend. Unlike the rapid rise caused by spot ETF approval in the first half of the year, the current round of rise is more in line with the characteristics and cycle of the asset itself. The overall increase in BTC over the week has slowed down, maintaining around 2%. Currently, the price of the coin is fluctuating around $65,000, with relatively small fluctuations. The high point for the week is around $65,800, while the low point is around $62,385.

Analysis suggests that the price fluctuations of BTC are mainly influenced by external news factors, but they mostly follow the overall trend of the market. The increase has weakened and there has not been a particularly large-scale continuous upward trend. There is a high probability of continuous small increases in the short term.

### Ethereum (ETH)

(Data Courtesy Of TradingView)

ETH reached a high point of around $2,700 this week, showing a rapid upward trend before entering a new cycle of volatility. Influenced by news and the overall market rally, the upward trend continued. The coin price remained above $2,600 and continued to rise and fall. ETH's weekly increase is around 6.64%. The coin is in a relatively obvious fluctuation stage, with a significant increase in price.

Analysis suggests that the price of ETH has shown a larger increase compared to BTC, mainly due to its lagging performance last week. There is a clear upward signal, but in terms of price trend, it is still similar to BTC. The fluctuation range of ETH coin price is likely to continue above $2,600, and there is a high probability of further rebound after breaking through $2,700.

## Web3 Project Trend
The total market cap of seven categories of projects has not increased significantly, and basically rebounded across the board.
