The Fixygen project analyzed all cryptocurrency market trends over the week and prepared an analysis for investors and the media. The cryptocurrency market ended last week with mixed sentiments: leading digital assets showed mixed dynamics, investors continue to assess signals from the US Federal Reserve, the global stock market, and industry news.
According to CoinMarketCap, the total capitalization of the cryptocurrency market at the end of the week was about $2.43 trillion, which is 1.5% higher than seven days ago. At the same time, the daily trading volume remained volatile and fluctuated between $70-90 billion.
Bitcoin rose to $66,000 during the week, but corrected to $64,500 on Friday, which is 0.7% lower than the previous week. Analysts note that the asset is holding in the $63,000–67,000 range, and the key driver for further movement will remain the dynamics of US inflation and expectations regarding interest rates.
Ethereum, amid news of growing interest from institutional players, managed to rise above $2,600, but failed to consolidate above this level — the week ended with a quote of $2,550. As a result, the asset showed moderate growth of about 2.1%.
Altcoins behaved in different ways. Solana rose in price by almost 5% amid increased activity in the ecosystem of decentralized applications. Ripple and Cardano added about 1%, while Dogecoin and Shiba Inu fell within the range of 2-3%.
Stablecoins maintained their positions: USDT’s share in the market structure remains at 68%, indicating high liquidity and continued cautious demand from investors.
Experts emphasize that the cryptocurrency market continues to react to the macroeconomic situation and news about regulation. In particular, discussions of new rules for disclosing information about digital assets in the US are putting pressure on short-term expectations.
In the medium term, market participants will focus on upcoming US employment reports, Fed minutes, and global inflation statistics. These factors could set the direction for Bitcoin and key altcoins in October.
Thus, last week on the crypto market was a period of relative stabilization with limited fluctuations, while in the coming weeks, investors are waiting for new drivers for growth or correction.

The week on the cryptocurrency markets was marked by cautious optimism: Bitcoin strengthened, Ethereum and altcoins are preparing for potential growth, and key events – Fed rates, regulatory updates, and token lock-up volumes – are setting the tone for the second half of September.
Bitcoin rose 8% in September and is on track to have its best September in 13 years.
The total capitalization of the cryptocurrency market stabilized at around $4.05 trillion.
Bitcoin’s dominance has declined slightly, giving altcoins room to shine.
Ethereum and other major altcoins are showing the best growth rates in recent months; ETH has outperformed Bitcoin over the last third of the summer.
Bitcoin and ETH trading volumes have declined slightly, indicating market participants’ expectations ahead of major decisive events and regulatory decisions.
Forecasts and familiar themes for the second half of September from Fixygen:
Market participants expect another rate cut in the US, which could stimulate growth in “risky” assets, including cryptocurrencies.
Since Bitcoin is not so clearly in the lead, investors are likely to flow into altcoins — especially projects with real utility or new upgrades/token burns.
Simplified rules for listing ETF products and relaxed regulations could all increase the inflow of institutional capital.
There could be sharp pullbacks, especially if the macroeconomy unexpectedly deteriorates: inflation, unstable geopolitics, or regulatory overreach. Support from key levels (strong resistance/support) will be critical.
Close attention should be paid to events related to token unlocks and network protocol updates (e.g., throughput increases, staking income increases). These events could drive short-term interest in the market.

Today, cryptocurrency markets attracted attention: Bitcoin set a new historical high, exceeding $124,000, while Ethereum approached a record level, trading near $4,780.
According to Reuters, Bitcoin reached a new all-time high of $124,002.49, driven by active institutional investment, expectations of monetary policy easing by the Federal Reserve, and favorable regulatory steps by the US administration.
Confirming this trend, MarketWatch reports that Bitcoin’s growth is supported by growing investor interest and has gone against the strengthening of the dollar, with the country taking a more loyal stance towards cryptocurrencies.
Meanwhile, Ethereum is also showing steady growth, trading at $4,780.04, approaching its record highs of 2021. According to Aldía News, Ethereum jumped from around $4,220 at the start of trading last week to highs of around $4,790, just shy of its all-time high of $4,866.
The cryptocurrency boom continues to accelerate: Bitcoin is up ~30% since the start of the year, consolidating above $124,000. Ethereum is keeping pace, almost reaching its all-time high.
Institutional investments, ETFs, favorable regulatory steps, and expectations of interest rate cuts are the main factors driving the current momentum.
The cryptocurrency market is showing steady growth in early August 2025. The price of Bitcoin (BTC) on August 5 exceeds $114,900, while Ethereum (ETH) is trading at $3,685, according to data from leading exchanges and analytical platforms.
According to information from trading platforms, Bitcoin remains in the $113,900–$115,600 range. Ethereum is showing more active dynamics and grew by more than 40% in July, facilitated by institutional accumulation and growing interest in ETH-based ETF products.
Analysts attribute ETH’s growth to increased institutional interest — according to Reuters, the total portfolio of public companies in ETH exceeded 966,000 coins (about $3.5 billion), making Ethereum the No. 1 asset for corporate crypto trading in 2025.
Against this backdrop, ETH’s technical potential is estimated at $4,100 in the short term and $6,000–8,000 by the end of the year, provided that resistance above $4,000 is overcome.
At the same time, the Bitcoin price remains stable despite the seasonal August decline in activity. In the short term, BTC could reach $120,000–122,000, according to Cryptonews.
Major altcoins are showing mixed movements. XRP has recovered to $3.65 after a correction and, according to analysts’ forecasts, could reach $5 if the overall market growth continues. Solana (SOL) is receiving support from the DeFi and NFT segments, with a possible rise to $240–247 during August. Dogecoin (DOGE) shows limited potential despite short-term spikes. It is expected to move in the $0.20–0.23 range if market conditions are favorable.
Overall, analysts expect moderately positive dynamics in August amid growing demand from institutional investors and continued interest in crypto ETFs. Potential range: Bitcoin — $115,000–120,000, Ethereum — $3,800–4,200, XRP — $4.20–5.00, Solana — $235–250.
A correction is possible in September amid a traditional slowdown in activity and expectations of decisions from the US Federal Reserve. However, fundamental factors (growth of ETF structures, a positive regulatory environment in the EU and the US, interest in staking and DeFi) create the conditions for the upward trend to continue in the fourth quarter of 2025.
The number of declarations mentioning cryptocurrencies is growing from year to year. More than 1,400 such declarations were filed in 2022. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Tether are the most popular among Ukrainian officials. For example, in 2022, one of the Ukrainian MPs declared 121 bitcoins worth over UAH 195 million.
Ukrainian officials filed 1428 declarations with cryptocurrency assets in 2022. This is almost twice as many as in 2021: back then, crypto appeared in 788 declarations.
In the 2021 declarations, the most popular cryptocurrencies among Ukrainian officials were Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Ripple (XRP), and others. In 2022, the top positions did not change radically: Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) were still in demand, and Tether (USDT) joined the top three.
Which Ukrainian officials declared the most cryptocurrency?
First of all, it is worth noting that the declarants submit their assets both in hryvnia equivalent and simply by indicating the number of cryptocurrency units in their possession.
Bitcoins / Bitcoin (BTC)
In 2021, the largest amount of bitcoin was declared by Anna Pozdnyakova, Director of the Odesa City Heat Supply Utility, which amounted to UAH 53 million. A year later, Deputy Head of the Dnipro Regional State Administration Sergiy Karpenko took over the top spot. He owns bitcoins equivalent to UAH 41 million.
The largest amount of bitcoins in 2022 – 121 BTC – was declared by Mykyta Kuzkevych, a deputy of the Odesa Regional Council. In hryvnia equivalent, at the time of publication, this is more than UAH 195 million.
Ethereum (ETH)
Serhii Karpenko, the official from Dnipropetrovs’k region who declared the largest amount of bitcoins, has also been the record holder for the amount of ethereum for two years in a row. In his declarations for 2021 and 2022, the official noted that he had the same amount of equivalent for this cryptocurrency – UAH 14.6 million.
Crypto dollars / Tether (USDT)
Vitaliy Brovko, Deputy Head of the Department of the Prosecutor General’s Office, declared the most crypto dollars or stablecoins in 2021 – 774,500 units. The same official holds the record for the largest amount in equivalent – UAH 20 million.
The official also held the top spot among the declarants for 2022. The number of crypto dollars in his possession did not change, but their value increased to more than UAH 29 million.
At the same time, the largest amount of crypto dollars/stablecoins was declared by Maksym Kyselyov, Director of the State Enforcement Service Department of the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine, who earned UAH 25 million.
The biggest losses in crypto
It is also worth noting that there are several officials who have declared their crypto assets but have indicated that they have lost access to them.
380.95 bitcoins, a record amount among Ukrainian officials, were declared and lost by Roman Saramaga, Deputy Head of the State Service of Geology and Subsoil of Ukraine, in 2021. In hryvnia terms, at the time of publication, this is about UAH 615 million.
The largest amount of ethereum – 1,800 units or more than UAH 160 million – belongs to Ihor Osipov, a deputy of the Podil District Council of Odesa Oblast. In 2021 and 2022, the official stated in his declarations that he had lost access to cryptocurrency.
“Having analyzed a large number of declarations, first of all, it is worth noting their poor quality. It seems that officials spend 5 minutes on declarations on the last day of submission. Despite the fact that there is already a special section where it is necessary to indicate assets in crypto, almost all crypto holdings are filled in differently, with errors and in different parts of the declarations.
Overall, the statistics show that ownership of such an opaque asset as cryptocurrency is not something risky or suspicious for officials. After all, the number of such officials has almost doubled over the past two years,” comments Oleksiy Ivankin, founder of Opendatabot.
Context.
Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the mandatory verification of officials’ declarations has been temporarily canceled. Despite this, the obligation of officials to report on their property status and changes in it has not been canceled.
Last fall, the verification of declarations was resumed. Therefore, Ukrainian officials had to catch up with the previous period (2021 and 2022) by the end of January 2024.
The deadline for submitting declarations for 2023 remains the same – April 2024.

Bitcoins, CRYPTOCURRENCY, cryptocurrency assets, CryptoDollars, Ethereum
The rate of bitcoin fell by 4% during trading on Thursday after the publication of data on higher-than-expected inflation in the United States.
The price of bitcoin at 16:11 CST fell by 4.4% compared to the closing level of the previous trading and amounted to $18,312 thousand, which is the lowest level since June 18.
The rate of ether (Ether) fell by 6.6%, to $1.212 thousand.
Consumer prices (CPI index) in the US in September rose by 8.2% compared to the same month last year, showed data published on Thursday by the country’s Ministry of Labor. Thus, inflation slowed to a seven-month low from 8.3% in August, but was higher than the 8.1% expected by analysts polled by Bloomberg.
On a monthly basis, the CPI index increased by 0.4%, although analysts were expecting a rise of 0.2%.
Meanwhile, consumer price growth excluding the cost of food and energy (Core CPI) in September accelerated to 6.6% in annual terms from 6.3% in August.
“The whole world is looking at US inflation data to try and predict what the Fed is doing,” said Stefan Rast, founder of research firm Truflation.
Higher-than-expected inflation raises the possibility of another 75 basis point rate hike at the next Fed meeting on November 1-2.
