## Weekly Trend Overview
The crypto market remained slightly volatile this week, with different fluctuations in mainstream currencies. SOL experienced a significant increase this week. The overall fund volume in the market has increased compared to last week's closing stage, but the total amount of funds in BTC and ETH has changed relatively little within seven days, and the price trend is relatively stable. As a hot topic in the market, in_script_ions have been highly sought after recently, with outstanding performance on the NFT track. However, the overall trend of mainstream cryptocurrencies this week is still in a continuous oscillation cycle. The current total market funding is $1.65 trillion, an increase of over $40 billion compared to the same period last week.

The crypto project of Top100 had a 4:6 rise and fall ratio this week, and the market continued to fluctuate. The intraday volatility caused many long and short positions to be sold out this week, and the overall trend is still unclear. The weekly high for BTC is $44,231, while the weekly high for ETH is $2,326.

The prices of BTC and ETH have risen and fallen to 1.16% and -2.88% in a week. The 7-day increase in SEI this week reached 54.5%, but the most impressive among several mainstream currencies is still SOL, which has now become the fourth ranked cryptocurrency with an increase of over 20% within a week.

The crypto market as a whole has remained slightly volatile this week, and the overall market value has not changed significantly. However, we can expect market changes in the following week, which is the last month of 2023.

The trend of BTC and ETH this week is mainly reflected in frequent intraday fluctuations, with a more obvious downward trend in the price range within a week. However, BTC has now rebounded and reached a new weekly high. As of now, the global crypto market value is $1.65 trillion, and the entire market has risen by approximately 0.97% within 24 hours.

## Crypto Market Highlights   
⭐️In the past week, the hot topics in the crypto market have appeared in individual public chains, ecosystems, and types of crypto assets, involving a wide range of crypto types. Overall, the recent rise of pancakes has been relatively weak, and the market is more inclined to speculate on other concepts. Therefore, the rise and fall of the secondary currency and Altcoin sectors have been more intense. In the short term, without the influence of external news, it is highly likely that the entire market will maintain this trend.

⭐️Amidst the continued cyclical fluctuations in the market this week, SOL, as one of the top five mainstream currencies in the market, has seen significant gains within a week. In fact, since the last quarter of this year, SOL's performance has been evident, coupled with high market acceptance, showing a continuous upward trend for several weeks. Currently, it has broken through the key price of $90, with an increase of over 20% within a week, It is foreseeable that there will be further bullish sentiment in the future, and breaking through $100 is foreseeable in the short term.

(Data Courtesy Of TradingView)

The price of BTC reached a high point of $44,231 this week and a low point of around $40,500. The currency has shown a price trend of first falling and then rising within a week, which is a regular cyclical fluctuation and remains within a small range. Compared to the same period last week, the price change is not significant.

Overall, BTC's performance this week is still a regular fluctuation of market correction. As the focus of market hotspots is temporarily not on the relevant sectors of the currency, the price trend of BTC is also inclined towards a regular fluctuation trend, with a significant intraday fluctuation. The downward trend within a week has shifted to a stop falling and rise trend, and the probability of maintaining the current price range in the following week is relatively high.

### Ether (ETH)
