Weekly Recap: Altcoins Lead with Minor Gains

The previous week’s recovery trend carried on over the past few days with tokens like CEL and TKO recording encouraging gains.

A lot of altcoins have seen positive movement over the past few days. This is especially true for tokens with ties to the metaverse given recent developments surrounding the sector. The total crypto market cap gained nearly $20B this week but failed to retain the increase and as such is closing at $851B.

King crypto BTC entered the week with a selling price well under the $17 support level. Trading rather slowly, the token sank further, briefly dipping into the red. However, the cryptocurrency’s price picked up over the next few days and Bitcoin peaked at $17,378. The token has retreated to close the week at $16,942 holding steady amidst the stressful conditions brought on by the FTX collapse.

It was something of a rough week for Ethereum as the crypto second-in-command fought repeatedly to cease trading in the red. The token spiked multiple times climbing past $1.3k at some point. ETH seems to have caved to market pressure as though plunged on Wednesday and is worth $1,228 at the moment.
