Welcome,
The cryptocurrency market enjoyed a prosperous week following news that inflation is moderating. The U.S. Consumer Price Index remained unchanged from June to July, providing investors with some relief.
In addition, Ether surged to a two-month high following the successful completion of final testing for the Ethereum upgrade scheduled for the following month.
Bitcoin had a strong week and briefly traded above $25,000 for the first time since June before dropping back to $24.213. Ethereum, on the other hand, reached $2.010 at one moment and is currently up by +7.49% since 7 days ago.

If we accept that we were in the 4th crypto winter until now, it is safe to assume that we have finally entered the crypto spring. With the beginning of this new cycle for the industry, we are looking into the numerous upcoming technological updates across different protocols.

The exposure of $10 trillion to crypto, however, does sound promising.
