## Crypto Market Highlights  
⭐️In the past week, the crypto market has rebounded. After the fourth halving of BTC, miners' income has increased rapidly, and various hot news has driven the prices of mainstream currencies up as a whole. However, this round of recovery is still in its early stages, and the prices of several key currencies have not yet returned to their previous price levels. However, there is still a need for some hot topics inside and outside the market to stimulate.

## BTC & ETH Weekly Performance

### BTC & ETH Weekly Performance

The price of BTC has increased to some extent this week, but overall it is a slight price rebound based on last weekend. There was a significant downward trend towards the end of the weekend, which prevented the weekly increase from achieving a high price increase. Presently, the currency has maintained a continuous fluctuation around $64,678 and has shown a certain upward trend. The high point of BTC's weekly price is $67,252, while the low point is near $62,802, falling below $63,000 in a short period of time.

Analysis suggests that the price of BTC this week is still in a rebound cycle after the fourth halving, coupled with consecutive days of large net inflows of ETF funds. The market has a strong bullish expectation for the price of BTC, and the impact of halving will drive the price of BTC to recover to a certain extent. Considering the recent hot spots in the ecosystem to which the currency belongs, the overall trend will continue upward until it returns to above the $70,000 level.

### Ether (ETH)

(Data Courtesy Of TradingView)

The price fluctuation of ETH this week is greater than that of BTC, and it is also in a relatively straightforward period of rebound. However, the currency's price remained below $3,200 for most of the week. Although the overall trend showed a significant recovery, it was still unable to achieve a significant rebound due to external information limitations. The high point of the currency's price within a week was close to $3,300, while the low appeared around $3,074, which was rapidly declining towards the weekend.

Analysis suggests that the performance of ETH coin prices this week is relatively more susceptible to external information, with a more drastic fluctuation in coin prices. Moreover, the impact of SEC-related reviews is still unfavorable, which makes the sustained upward support for ETH prices relatively weak. The short-term increase in the currency is expected to remain similar to earlier levels and cannot be compared to the expected BTC price in the long run.

## Web3 Project Trend
