## Weekly Trend Overview
This week's overall trend of the <a  rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"  href="/price" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">crypto market</a> continues to be positive, showing a clear upward trend. Most mainstream cryptocurrencies have experienced varying degrees of price increases in the past week. Currently, due to a large number of retail crypto users returning to the market and various corporate investments, the overall market value of the crypto market has further increased, and the mainstream sentiment in the market remains relatively optimistic. BTC prices continued to hit a historic high, breaking above $98,000 and approaching the $100,000 mark. The BTC market share remains at around 59%, with a weekly high of around $98,805, setting a new historical high. Overall, the price fluctuations of key mainstream coins are within a volatile upward cycle, and there will be further increases in the future. However, there is still a possibility of a pullback in the overall market. The market sentiment is around 88, and new market changes will occur during the weekend closing period. The overall market value of the crypto market has grown significantly, reaching around $3.26 trillion, with a 6.09% increase within 24 hours.

Compared to last week, the overall performance of the crypto market continued to rise this week, with various positive news, such as ETFs, corporate investments, and bill promotions emerging one after another. BTC continued to drive the overall market to see continuous gains, with a weekly increase of over 10%. The weekly price increase of ETH is relatively small, around 6.7%, and currently remains around $3,351.

The overall performance of the crypto market this week is relatively clear, with most mainstream coins still showing a continuous rebound affected by the overall market rise, but currently still within a certain oscillation cycle. OM's 7-day increase reached around 108%, with the largest price increase, currently maintaining a stable trend of around $3.63.

The overall crypto market will likely continue to rise this weekend, but a slight correction is still possible.

## Crypto Market Highlights
⭐️ Last week, the crypto market continued its recent upward trend, mainly influenced by the rapid inflow of external funds and overall bullish expectations. The volatile upward trend has been very obvious in the past week. Currently, as the weekend closing period approaches, the market still has no signs of fatigue, but there is a possibility of a slight correction.

⭐️ Many mainstream coins have seen significant price increases in the market this week, and with the overall rise of the market, the top growth coins have seen a significant price increase. However, as a newly launched coin, OM has experienced a continuous large-scale price increase, with a seven-day increase of around 113%. There has been a short-term downward trend, but overall it is relatively stable. The coin price currently remains around $3.7 and is expected to experience further price changes later, but there is a high probability of a slight price correction during the closing period.

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

(Data Courtesy Of TradingView)

This week, BTC's price has again shown a continuous upward trend, fluctuating from around the $90,000 level and breaking through multiple high points in a row. BTC has once again set multiple historically high prices, with a high probability of breaking through $100,000 in the future. The high point of BTC's weekly price is around $99,000, while the low point is around $88,700 during the week's opening session.

Analysis suggests that BTC's price changes are still mainly due to the recent large net inflow of external funds in the market. This, coupled with the crypto market's overall bullish outlook and the promotion of relevant laws in various regions, has led to a clear, continuous rise in BTC prices.

### Ethereum (ETH)
