## Weekly Trend Overview
The overall <a href="/price" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">crypto market</a> showed a relatively obvious volatile market this week. Affected by the continued decline of US stocks last week, there is no clear upward signal for the market, but overall, it has escaped the general decline and entered a new volatile cycle. Rapid intraday ups and downs dominated the market, and the trend of mainstream coins maintained continuous fluctuations within a small range. The market tends to concentrate in the same price range, and the current mainstream market trend is likely to continue in the short term.

The prices of most mainstream cryptocurrencies rebounded last weekend, and fell significantly after this week's opening. The market trend is still unclear in the short term and is expected to remain mainly short-term intraday fluctuations.

This week, the price of BTC fluctuated between $95,000 and $99,000 for most of the time, with a significant decline during the opening period. The low point of <a href="/price/bitcoin-btc" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">BTC price</a> fell below the key price of $95,000, and subsequently remained above $95,000 and continued to fluctuate. <a href="/price/ethereum-eth" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">ETH price</a> changes are similar. Most of the key mainstream coins' price trends have continued to rise and fall within a small range. The current market sentiment has warmed up to around 40. The overall market value of the crypto market has not changed significantly, reaching around $3.16 trillion, down 0.75% in 24 hours.

The crypto market has entered a new oscillation cycle this week, with multiple rounds of small ups and downs in a week, and there is a trend of further decline. The current price of BTC is around $95,618. The price trend of ETH is similar, and the current price remains around $2,624.

The overall crypto market has been mainly rising and falling this week, and there is no further large-scale rise and fall trend. The current prices of many mainstream coins are in the same range as the opening price. The top coin with the largest increase this week is CAKE, which has increased by about 90% in a week.

The overall crypto market remained volatile this weekend, with short-term fluctuations being the main trend. In the short term, the current market cycle will continue for some time.

## Crypto Market Highlights
⭐️ Last week, the overall trend of the crypto market was still in a state of hunger after the external news factors last week, and short-term ups and downs are the mainstream market trend. Although the market's overall value has changed little, the market as a whole has not yet emerged from the recent sluggish market state as it approaches the weekend closing time, and the probability of maintaining a small range of ups and downs in the future is high.

⭐️ This week, CAKE ranked first in the increase of the crypto market among the mainstream coins, mainly due to the influence of the AMM platform's own actions, which attracted a large amount of funds from the DeFi track, which made the price of CAKE rise significantly within a week. The coin rose by about 90% in a week, and the current price remained at around $2.66, with a certain price decline trend.
