Currently, it has remained above $2,800 with slight fluctuations. The trend of the crypto market in the Top100 crypto market this week is mainly characterized by an increase in coin prices, which has also led to a large number of short positions and short positions in the short term. The overall market is expected to still have some room for growth in the short term.

The 7-day increase in VET this week reached 56.52%, and the currency price is currently maintained around 0.04534 US dollars, ranking among the top currencies in terms of price increase.

The crypto market has shown a continuous general rise this week, significantly increasing total market value. Market sentiment has shifted towards greed, and there will likely be another significant upward trend during the weekend closing phase, followed by an appropriate correction phase.

## Crypto Market Highlights

⭐️In the past week, the crypto market has experienced a continuous general rise, influenced by market cycle fluctuations. Last week, a prediction was made on the market situation that there will be subsequent price increases based on the trend curves of several mainstream currencies. However, due to the breakthrough of mainstream currencies at key prices and the inflow of over-the-counter funds, the upward trend has been much more rapid than predicted. The subsequent market situation needs to be judged based on the overall trend of the weekend closing stage, and a new wave of upward trend will likely occur over the weekend, followed by a slight correction phase.

⭐️This week, the market has seen a further upward trend. Although the overall market has generally risen, some currencies with significant increases are still attributed to blockchain games, counterfeit coins, etc. Among them, VET has risen by 56.52% in seven days. As the native token of <a href="/price/vechain-vet" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">VeChain</a>, VET has experienced a sharp rise in the short term after undergoing ecosystem updates and consolidation. The current price is around $0.045, and it is expected to reach the key price of $0.07. With the overall upward trend of the market and the impact of ecosystem actions, achieving this goal is not difficult

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

The price trend of BTC has shown a continuous upward trend this week, with a 14-day period as the boundary, with one wave of upward trend before and after each. There is no doubt that the currency will break through $50,000 this week, but market sentiment has responded warmly to the key price breakthrough of BTC, with further supplementary upward trends appearing. The currency price once surged to $52,000, showing a slight downward trend with weak growth. The price peak within a week is around $52,850.

Analysis suggests that the currency price trend of BTC this week is quite typical. Due to a market share of over 50%, the basic trend curve can be seen as the fluctuation trend of the market. The rapid upward trend in two consecutive rounds corresponds to the mainstream view of the market situation earlier; that is, the subsequent rapid replenishment and the continuous replenishment after key price breakthroughs, combined with market sentiment, have led to a breakthrough increase in BTC prices this week. The subsequent coin price still needs to be determined based on the weekend market trend, and it is highly likely to experience a pullback next week, with the magnitude depending on the fluctuation of the key price level of $50,000.

### Ether (ETH)
![](https://gimg2.gateimg.com/image/article/17082252413.png)
(Data Courtesy Of TradingView)

The price trend of ETH has maintained a strong correlation with BTC this week, and it is also a continuous rebound brought about by key price breakthroughs and market sentiment. Currently, the currency continues to operate above $2,800, and the situation is slightly better than BTC. This is due to various high-frequency trading demands on Ethereum over the past week. The weekly high point of ETH once reached $2,870, but currently there is also a state of weak growth, and it is unlikely to break through $2,900 in the short term.

Analysis suggests that the ETH coin price trend has achieved good upward results this week with the overall market fluctuations, and has continuously broken through key price levels. It is likely it will experience a brief coin price correction together with other mainstream currencies in the future. However, the application characteristics of Ethereum itself will make the magnitude of this currency slightly smaller in this regard, and further observation is needed in conjunction with the weekend market situation.

This week, the total market value of the seven categories of projects has increased significantly, with each track rising by more than ten percentage points.
