This past week has been marked by widespread declines across the top market cap cryptocurrencies, reflecting the dynamic and ever-evolving nature of the crypto ecosystem. Despite the downturns, the market continues to showcase resilience, with certain assets maintaining growth trajectories and signaling potential recovery paths.
Weekly Highlights:
