Currently, the total market capitalization of Crypto Assets is $3.34 trillion, with BTC accounting for 61.55%, which is $2.06 trillion. The market capitalization of stablecoins is $249.1 billion, with a 7-day increase of 0.72%, of which USDT accounts for 62.05%.
This week, the price of BTC is showing range fluctuations, currently at $103,655; ETH is also showing range fluctuations, currently at $2,481.
Among the top 200 projects on CoinMarketCap, a small portion have risen while the majority have fallen, including: SKY with a 7-day increase of 10%, LA with a 7-day increase of 183.83%, MASK with a 7-day increase of 47.53%, and ANIME with a 7-day increase of 37.33%.
This week, the net outflow of Bitcoin spot ETFs in the United States was $130.8 million; the net inflow of Ethereum spot ETFs in the United States was $280.8 million.
The “Fear & Greed Index” on June 6th was 46 (the index is lower than last week), and the sentiment for this week is: 7 days neutral.
Market Forecast:
This week, stablecoins continued to be issued, the US Bitcoin spot ETF showed a net outflow, continuing last week’s trend, and the Ethereum spot ETF saw a net inflow. Both BTC and ETH are range-bound. The RSI index is neutral at 49.59, the altcoin quarterly index is 18, and this week it was announced that the US seasonally adjusted non-farm payrolls for May were higher than expected, and the “small non-farm” employment index was the smallest increase since March 2023. The Fear and Greed Index remains neutral.
The probability of the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates by 25 basis points in June is only 2.6%, with expectations for a rate cut to begin in Q3 of this year. The market shows two situations: listed companies ‘rushing to buy BTC’ and profit-takers and spot ETF sell-offs. If there are no major events or new liquidity influx, BTC will maintain fluctuations around 100,000 to 105,000 USD next week. Attention can be given to the progress of the relationship with Chuanma.
