Forecast Trend Report by Period

The global cryptocurrency market has added more than $430 billion in less than a week. After Bitcoin regained the $80,000 level, buying spread to major tokens including Ether, Solana and XRP, fueling the steepest rally in months.

CoinGecko data show the global crypto market's capitalization reached $2.68 trillion on Aug. 24, up about 19% from roughly $2.25 trillion a week earlier. Profit-taking emerged afterward, but the total market value still held near $2.7 trillion on Aug. 28.

Bitcoin gained 23% over seven days to $78,995 during the rally and briefly climbed above $80,000 for the first time since May. Ether rose 30% over the same period to $2,481, while Solana advanced 28% to $96.82. XRP surged 48% to $1.48, the biggest gain among major cryptocurrencies.

Expectations for US liquidity support and moves to improve the regulatory framework helped drive the rally. Optimism grew after the US Treasury said it would expand buybacks of long-term Treasuries, raising hopes that pressure from rising market interest rates could ease. Investor sentiment also improved after President Donald Trump urged Congress to advance cryptocurrency legislation. US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds posted about $1.92 billion in net inflows in the week ended Aug. 21.
