BTC & ETH Market Update π
Crypto is up this week, with BTC being down 5.3% and ETH down 10.2%:
Bitcoin dominance has increased over the week, rising from 53.9% to a low of 53.56% and ending at 54.6%. Investor sentiment, regulatory changes, technological advancements, and the overall growth of the cryptocurrency sector shape Bitcoin's market dominance. Its reputation as "digital gold" also enhances its position, making it a key player in the market.
Itβs going to be interesting to see whether this trend will continue in the short term, as capital in crypto tends to flow initially to BTC and then further out on the risk-curve, starting with altcoins like ETH and then into mid- or low-cap coins.
