Major cryptocurrencies exhibited volatility during weekend trading, as the market cautiously seeks direction. Amid the dominance of institutional investment products and regulatory developments, ETF capital flows shifted from a strong start to a weaker finish at the end of the week.
Bitcoin(BTC) benefited from soft US employment indicators and expectations of interest rate policies, breaking through the 1.3 billion KRW mark and achieving two consecutive weeks of gains. The current price is around 131.9 million KRW, with a slight decrease of 0.66% over 24 hours. Although approximately $697 million in ETF capital flowed in at the beginning of the week, there were three consecutive days of capital outflows afterward, resulting in an overall sideways pattern.
Ethereum(ETH) performed weaker compared to Bitcoin, trading near 4.49 million KRW. Despite inflows through BlackRock’s ETH A, outflows from Grayscale products offset this effect. In the later part of the week, redemption demand increased, and capital shifted toward stability.
Ripple(XRP) experienced a nearly 2% decline today despite positive regulatory news, trading at 3,045 KRW. However, the weekly gain remains between 7-9%, maintaining a technical rebound trend. XRP is emerging as a potential investment tool and is attracting institutional attention.
Solana(SOL) gained attention after being included in the ETF application submitted by Morgan Stanley. This is interpreted as a signal that Solana has officially entered the mainstream institutional investment sphere. The current price is around 198,000 KRW. Solana is showing signs of developing a momentum to become a “mainstream institutional-grade altcoin” alongside Bitcoin.
Overall, small-cap coins experienced higher volatility this week, with some performing better. XRP notably recorded significant gains. However, the Crypto Fear & Greed Index still indicates “Fear”(27), reflecting cautious overall market sentiment.
Additionally, the incident involving TrueBit smart contract vulnerability, which resulted in the loss of over 8,500 ETH, serves as a reminder that security risks remain severe for certain projects.
