## Weekly Trend Overview
The overall performance of the <a href="/pt-br/price" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">crypto market</a> this week showed a relatively volatile fluctuation, with most mainstream cryptocurrencies experiencing significant fluctuations in price. The overall market volume remained relatively stable throughout the week. Due to the rapid inflow of BTC spot ETF and the official launch of ETH spot ETF, the market has experienced a relatively obvious upward trend. However, due to the risk avoidance measures of Wall Street financial capital and the influence of some negative news factors, the overall market trend has been fluctuating and rebounding. Under the influence of the recent cycle, the overall market of the crypto market is still in a significant fluctuation stage, but the amplitude is relatively small. The market needs further positive stimulation to drive the rise. The overall market value growth of the crypto market has increased compared to the same period last week, and the current total market value has reached around $2.3 trillion, a decrease of 3.68% within 24 hours. The market sentiment remained around 59, with little change compared to the previous week. The trend of key mainstream coins this week is mainly characterized by clear ups and downs, and it is highly likely that the overall crypto market will need to wait for a certain period of time to experience a large-scale upward trend.

Compared to last week, the total volume of the crypto market has rebounded. The market is greatly affected by factors, such as news and external capital inflows. After entering the opening period, the market began to show a rapid upward trend, reaching a one-week high in the middle of the week, followed by a rapid downward trend. The rise and fall ratio of mainstream coins within a week is 3:7, and most coins have frequent fluctuations within a week. The trend of the <a href="/pt-br/price/bitcoin-btc" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">BTC price</a> has been relatively volatile within a week, with a slight rebound at present. The closing price near the weekend has reached above $65,000, with a weekly increase of about 2.69%. ETH has showed a significant decline, currently maintaining around $3,192, with a weekly drop of around 6.64%.

The coin with a clear upward trend in the market this week is still the first to promote the MEME track. MEW has performed exceptionally well, with a 7-day increase of about 90%, and the coin price is currently maintained around $0.007267.

There is still a possibility of further fluctuations in the crypto market this weekend, and a new round of market volatility is expected during the weekend, with a high probability of sustained downturns.

## Crypto Market Highlights  
⭐️Last week, the crypto market maintained a fluctuating trend of first rising and then falling, with market fluctuations. Although most mainstream coins have experienced a moderate rebound this week, most of them have fallen again in the short term due to the impact of news. This has resulted in a relatively small overall increase in the market, but a large amount of external funds have continued to <a href="/pt-br/price/flow-flow" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">flow</a> in. In addition, the ETH spot ETF has been officially launched, and the market is expected to usher in a major market rally in the short term.

⭐️The number of mainstream coins that have experienced significant increases in the market this week is relatively small, especially in the MEME track where multiple coins have experienced significant declines. However, there are still popular projects with rapid gains. MEW's weekly increase has reached around 93%, and the current price is around $0.0074. The weekly high point of the coin is $0.0088. The coin is currently in a sustained range of small fluctuations, and it is expected that there will be a slight increase after the official release of relevant updates.

## BTC & ETH Weekly Performance

### Bitcoin (BTC)
![](https://gimg2.gateimg.com/image/article/17219602752.jpeg)
(Data Courtesy Of TradingView)

This week, the overall price of BTC was dominated by sustained volatility, driven by the rapid inflow of spot ETFs, resulting in a slight increase in BTC prices after opening, rising from $67,000 to above $68,000. However, due to the risk avoidance and contraction strategy adopted by the external mainstream financial market, the coin lacks continuous upward price support, and subsequently mainly oscillates downwards. The high point of BTC's weekly price is around $68,500, while the low point is around $63,400.

Analysis suggests that the price change of BTC this week is actually influenced by the net inflow of spot ETF funds, resulting in a short-term upward trend. However, the overall market is still in a continuous fluctuation cycle, lacking clear signals and support for an overall rise. After entering the weekend period, the coin is expected to experience further upward trend, with a certain probability of returning to above $68,000, and there is a high possibility of continued volatility in the future.

### Ethereum (ETH)
![](https://gimg2.gateimg.com/image/article/17219602963.jpeg)
(Data Courtesy Of TradingView)

The high point of the <a href="/pt-br/price/ethereum-eth" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">ETH price</a> this week is at $3,562, and the price trend has been relatively stable. Unlike BTC's obvious fluctuations, there is currently no clear sign of recovery for the coin after a rapid decline near the weekend closing period. But ETH as a whole still maintains a slight fluctuation above $3,100, and the current price remains around $3,162.

Analysis suggests that the performance of ETH coin price this week was affected by the launch of spot ETFs, resulting in a certain degree of increase in coin price in a short period of time. However, due to the small inflow of funds, it cannot form a significant positive factor for the coin and the overall market, which makes it difficult for ETH price to generate significant upward momentum. The subsequent major market changes of this coin still rely more on the overall upward trend of the market, and the probability of a significant rebound in the market during the weekend closing period is relatively small.

## Web3 Project Trend
This week, the total market value of seven types of projects fluctuated, and due to changes in market cycles and external news, each track has different performances. Currently, there is still a probability of significant changes in the market trend, and various sectors may receive clear signals of rise and fall during the weekend.
