Bitcoin (BTC) was able to rise again this week and pulled many altcoins along. A number of cryptocurrencies even skyrocketed this week. Total market cap comes in at $2.1 trillion this morning, up 0.5% today and a staggering 7.7% this week.
Ethereum up 6.7% this week
Ethereum (ETH) was even able to gain slightly more than bitcoin this week. The peak to $3,180 on Friday is the high for now. Still, ether appears to be holding up above USD 3,140 this morning, bringing the price up 0.8% today and even 6.7% this week. Unlike bitcoin, ether is now also above the level where the price was rejected last time.
AVAX and LUNA in the red this week
Avalanche (AVAX) was able to rise sharply last week, but had its worst week among the largest cryptos this week. Despite this, AVAX can still hold above $84 for the time being and the price has risen by 1.4% in the past 24 hours to $85.7. However, that is 4.4% lower than last week. Terra (LUNA) is the other major crypto in the red, down 1.6% this week and comes in at $90.6.
SHIB, XRP and BNB lagged slightly this week
Shiba Inu (SHIB) also lagged somewhat this week. Still, with a price of $0.0000246, SHIB is up 0.6% today, and 2% this week. Ripple (XRP) also didn’t really keep up with the rest. XRP comes in at $0.835, also up 0.6% today and 2% this week. Binance Coin (BNB) is currently falling to $415, leaving the price only 0.2% in the green today. Nevertheless, BNB is already 3.8% in the green this week.
DOT, SOL, DOGE, ADA in the green this week
Then we have the prices that have already risen much faster this week. Polkadot (DOT) is still struggling with $21 but is still 0.8% in the green today and even 8.5% this week. Solana (SOL) dropped towards $100 overnight, bringing it to the same price as 24 hours ago. Yet that is still 9.2% in the green compared to a week ago.
Dogecoin (DOGE) has risen by as much as 5% in the past 24 hours and is currently holding at USD 0.14. This puts DOGE up 13.5% this week. Yet it was Cardano (ADA) that pulled ahead by far the most from the top 10 this week. The $1.15 was a bit too much last night, but ADA still comes in at $1.13, which means that the price is no less than 26% in the green this week.
Top 100 crypto biggest losers today and this week
However, a handful of cryptos are still turning red today, including some of the biggest gainers this week.

Juno (JUNO) continues to fall and together with Axie Infinity (AXS) is down 3.5% today.
