The Crypto Market: A Week of Ups and Downs
The crypto market has seen significant ups and downs in the past week, with Bitcoin (BTC) fracturing $61,000, Ethereum (ETH) stabilizing, and Solana (SOL) skyrocketing to new heights.
Bitcoin’s recent decline can be attributed to the increasing likelihood of Kamala Harris becoming the next President of the United States, as well as several other important events and developments that have impacted the market narrative. Despite its current value of approximately $61,000, Bitcoin has experienced range-bound prices and is expected to break above $70,000.
Ethereum, on the other hand, has been showing strength, with its price fluctuating between $2,700 and $2,000. During the last week, Ethereum’s TVL (Total Value Locked) has experienced a surge in growth, driven by the prevalence of decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols on its network.
Solana, which reached an all-time high of $183.00, has been surprisingly strong this week thanks to the integration of PayPal’s stablecoin with the platform, pushing beyond Ethereum and even further increasing TVL. The scalability and high transaction throughput of Solana have made it an attractive option for DeFi protocols and decentralized applications (dApps).
According to Hayes, Bitcoin’s price action will determine the direction of the broader market, and if it were convincing enough to reach $70,000 or higher, altcoins would begin to rally. The change has raised doubts about the stability of the Terra ecosystem and its potential effects on the wider DeFi network.
