Here is how Bitcoin performed this week:

  • Bitcoin price change: Bitcoin price dropped from $59,000 to the press time $57,181, representing a 3.05% fall.
  • Bitcoin (BTC) Market capitalization: BTC market capitalization fell from $1.17 trillion to $1.12 trillion over the last seven days.
  • Top performing Bitcoin altcoins: This is the second consecutive week of a bearish Bitcoin Runes ecosystem, with only one token, MEME•ECONOMICS (MEMERUNE) gained over the last seven days, the memecoin recorded a 4.66% positive gain to reach $0.05691.

Bitcoin (BTC) price took a dramatic nosedive below the oh-so-crucial $55,724 this week, treating everyone to a thrilling 3.05% drop. Fortunately, the bears weren’t quite as ferocious as they wanted us to believe. 

Turns out, they got tired and couldn’t keep up the sell-off. As a result,  Bitcoin stumbled its way back to $57,000 within the last 24 hours.

The surge can be attributed to the U.S. BTC ETFs finally snapping out of their 8-day losing streak and throwing some positive flows Bitcoin’s way. As a result, Bitcoin swaggered back above $57,000 on Tuesday.

But don’t get too excited—according to Decrypt - experts have poured cold water on any glimmer of hope, and are already warning about the “sparse” catalysts for a long-term rally.

For example, they forecasted if Kamala Harris takes the win, they say we could be chilling in the $30,000-$40,000 range.

But if Trump gets back in the saddle, Bitcoin might decide it's time to enter the $80,000-$90,000 price zone.
