The crypto prices today are showing signs of resurgence as the majority of the coins in the market are trading in green. The week beginning August 5 saw billions wiped out of the market in liquidation leading to a significant downtrend that sent the market cap below $2 trillion.
However, during the week, some updates shaped the crypto price movements, including the large ETH acquisition by Tron founder, Justin Sun, and the rate cut delay by the FOMC. Also, the recent ruling by a federal court on the Ripple vs SEC legal battle influenced the price trajectory of the XRP coin. Even though investors are still not fully confident in the market, as shown in the crypto fear and greed index, the market is entering the weekend in a positive state. Let us look at an overview of the market below.
