Summary of last week crypto market

Throughout last week, Bitcoin remained in a sideways trend, fluctuating within the range of 50500 to 52500. This indicates that Bitcoin has not faced any significant reactions in the absence of major news or events affecting its price trajectory.

Following a slowdown in the upward momentum of major cap coins, attention has shifted towards the DeFi sector with a series of significant updates. These include Uniswap proposal to share fees with UNI stakers, Optimism fourth airdrop, and the continuous development of new solutions like EigenLayer retstaking and Ethena novel USDe stablecoin model.
