BTC & ETH Market Update 📈

Crypto is down this week, with BTC down by 4.6% and ETH down by 11.4%:

Bitcoin dominance has increased over the week, starting from 52.79% to a high of 56.04% and ending at 54.5%. 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.

It’s 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.
