The fear and greed index is also at 64, indicating that the market is being driven by greed. Most digital assets are also in the green, signaling that the upward trend is still continuing.
Bitcoin (BTC)
Bitcoin started the week on July 21 at around $117.4K and is currently at $118K, recording a slight weekly gain of 0.5%. However, on July 22-23, BTC briefly touched a peak of $120.2K before dropping drastically to below $115K on July 25.
Ethereum (ETH)
Ethereum experienced an uptrend of 9% during the week, rising from $3.55K to $3.85K. However, due to the previous dip, its net gain was only about 5% and it is currently at $3.75K.
Interestingly, ETH touched a seven-month high of $3.85K on July 21, thanks to fund inflows from the Ethereum Spot ETF in the US and increased institutional interest.
XRP followed a big uptrend the previous week, jumping from $2.96 to $3.45. However, this week XRP recorded a net decline of 6.7% and is now trading at $3.20.
Previously, XRP had also touched a peak of $3.53, recording a 45% surge in a month, although it later corrected.
Interestingly, this week was a big highlight for investors. In addition to setting new price records for many crypto assets, the market also provided entry points after prices had plummeted.
Several key events affected the overall financial markets, including Galaxy Digital’s massive sale of Bitcoin, Trump’s visit to the Fed, and the outbreak of war between Thailand and Cambodia.
Who are the Crypto Market Leaders of the Week?
Despite the price fluctuations, Ethereum (ETH) remained the market leader this week among the three major assets, with a net upward trend of 5%.

ETF fund inflows of $1.85 billion this week, on top of $2.18 billion previously, reflect the high demand for ETH.
In addition, increasing institutional interest-such as ETH purchases by Sharplink, accumulation by whales, and other developments-has reinforced this price rally.
Interestingly, several other cryptocurrencies also showed bullish performance, with Ethena and Pudgy Penguin being the two highest-gaining assets this week. Although BTC and XRP also posted gains, the price corrections they experienced left them behind in the competition.
Now, the market is waiting for next week’s developments-whether the upward trend will continue, or if there will be new turmoil in the crypto world.
