Crypto Market Last Week
Last week, Bitcoin made a strong recovery from the $89,200 mark, surging past the $106,000 threshold. However, this rally was short-lived as the market’s attention quickly shifted to the memecoin “TRUMP,” a cryptocurrency launched by the U.S. President-elect Donald Trump. Following this shift, Bitcoin plummeted, falling back below the $100,000 mark, marking a highly volatile week.
Not only Bitcoin but the entire altcoin market also faced a downturn, with many coins experiencing significant losses, some dropping by half or even two-thirds of their value. This cleared the stage for the meteoric rise of the TRUMP memecoin and the Solana ecosystem.
The TRUMP memecoin had an extraordinary debut, surpassing the market capitalization of DOGE in less than 48 hours, becoming the largest memecoin on the market.
Shortly after, First Lady Melania Trump fueled another wave of excitement by launching her own memecoin, MELANIA, which once again drove the market into the red.
