Last Week’s Market Highlights:
Alpha Insights: BTC repeatedly fluctuated within the $87,000–$90,500 range and gradually stabilized, but upward breakout momentum remains insufficient; ETH continued its low-level recovery, slowly rising after receiving effective support near $2,900, with overall rebound strength slightly stronger than BTC. CC surged 43.84% during the week, performing the best; ZEC and TON recorded gains of 17.51% and 13.98%, respectively.
On-Chain Funds: Ethereum led with nearly $200 million in net inflows, reflecting more of a defensive reallocation during the contraction cycle rather than a rebound in overall risk appetite. In contrast, Layer 2 networks with prominent transaction attributes such as Base and Arbitrum experienced significant net outflows. Crypto payment card transaction volumes continued to grow, and stablecoin payment scenarios accelerated, becoming one of the few application areas maintaining growth certainty in a cautious market environment.
