According to BitMart's market report on December 1, the total market capitalization of cryptocurrencies over the past week was $2.87 trillion, a decrease of 2.38% from the previous week.
Cryptocurrency Market Dynamics This Week
This week, the cryptocurrency market saw a slight recovery, with the selling pressure that had persisted for several weeks easing. Driven by expectations of a rate cut in December rising to about 85%, most tokens rebounded by over 5%. However, this round of recovery remains structurally significant: 79 out of the Top 100 tokens are still down more than 50% from their historical highs, with funds continuing to concentrate on BTC and mainstream assets, while established altcoins performed weakly due to a lack of structural buying. In contrast, exchanges/DEX, DeFi, and privacy sectors showed relative resilience.
The funding situation remains tight, with the growth of stablecoins, ETF inflows, and DAT issuance all slowing down, which suppresses broader rotation. Altcoin ETFs have become one of the few bright spots, continuously attracting net inflows and are expected to gradually reshape the demand structure for altcoins. On the fundamental side, Texas in the U.S. has initiated treasury purchases of BTC, and lawmakers are promoting policies to allow tax payments in BTC, which enhances adoption; however, the temporary suspension of CME, a hacking incident at Upbit, and a $11 million crypto robbery highlight security risks. Overall, the market is experiencing a mild recovery in a weak liquidity environment, but volatility remains constrained by macroeconomic factors and funding conditions.
Popular Tokens This Week
In terms of popular tokens, MYX, KAS, SPX, QNT, and SKY have all performed well.
QNT's price increased by 26.03% this week. SKY's price rose by 19.40%. KAS's price went up by 16.20%. MYX and KAS increased by 9.09% and 9.03%, respectively, this week.
U.S. Market Overview and Hot News
This week, risk sentiment in the U.S. stock market improved, with the major indices strengthening— the S&P 500 rose by 2.8%, and the NYFANG+ index approached 3%, mainly boosted by high expectations for a Fed rate cut in December. The U.S. dollar index fell by 0.54% due to weak employment data, while USD/JPY slightly retreated, with the yen strengthening under safe-haven demand. In commodities, gold rose by 2.88% driven by rate cut expectations; oil prices fluctuated, with supply signals still unclear. The yield on the U.S. 10-year Treasury bond fell due to weak data, but heavy issuance still exacerbated interest rate volatility. Market volatility significantly decreased—VIX and MOVE both fell, influenced by light trading during the Thanksgiving holiday and improved sentiment. Overall, market sentiment is cautiously optimistic, with macroeconomic uncertainty easing somewhat, but liquidity remains low.
