Crypto Weekly (08/05 – 08/11): Market Rebounds After Flash “Dump”

The cryptocurrency market has seen a significant recovery over the past week following a sharp 'dump' in early August. Additionally, there have been several positive developments in the crypto market this week, notably the resolution of the XRP lawsuit and the involvement of Donald Trump's son in the DeFi market.

Market Rebounds After Flash Dump

Crypto Market Last Week

After overcoming a sharp “dump” that caused Bitcoin’s price to plummet to 49,000 last week and resulted in over 1 billion USD being liquidated, the cryptocurrency market has quickly rebounded. Bitcoin rose from 49,500 to 62,800 and is currently trading around 58,700. Although the downturn was rapid, the market recovery has also been strong.

Despite the market’s volatility, the inflow and outflow from Bitcoin ETF and Ethereum ETF remained stable, primarily revolving around two names: Grayscale (seller) and BlackRock (buyer).

The majority of capital flow has been directed towards major coins like Bitcoin and ETH, leaving many Altcoins stagnant or continuing to decline despite the market’s recovery. This highlights the fierce nature of the cryptocurrency market.
