The cryptocurrency market shows unusual calmness, but the upcoming 'Crypto Week' in the USA could become a decisive factor for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and altcoins.
Current Market Situation
Over the past week, Bitcoin and altcoin prices have barely changed. Bitcoin is up 0.6%, Ethereum by 2%. Most of the altcoin market has remained flat, although some meme coins have shown double-digit gains. Historically, this kind of price behavior often precedes significant breakouts.
Importance of 'Crypto Week'
During 'Crypto Week', U.S. lawmakers will discuss important bills, including:
* The Clarity Act: establishing clear rules for the trading, investing, and regulation of crypto assets in the U.S. * The Stablecoin Bill (Genius Act): focused on regulating dollar-backed stablecoins and has already passed the Senate. * The Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act: aimed at blocking government-controlled digital currencies.
While certain bills like the Stablecoin Act are likely to move quickly, others such as the Clarity Act may take longer to finalize.
Prospects for Ethereum and the Market
With the recent $5 trillion increase in the U.S. debt ceiling, more money is expected to flow into the financial system, which typically benefits risk assets like cryptocurrency. Analysts believe that after Bitcoin, it will be Ethereum's turn. It is anticipated that Ethereum ETFs and tokenized assets will see significant growth in the second half of 2025. New projects such as Robinhood’s blockchain network and the rise of tokenized stocks and stablecoins on Ethereum’s platform are expected to fuel demand for ETH.
The upcoming week could bring critically important decisions for the crypto market. Legislative changes and supportive investment conditions may help attract new capital and activate the market.
