Crypto Trends 7 – 13 July 2025: Market Analysis and Performance
The crypto market spectacularly closes another week. Most cryptocurrencies have had a blast over the past seven days, with some recording impressive double-digit value boosts. The main story regards Bitcoin, of course, as the most popular crypto set another all-time high (ATH) trading price. Meanwhile, the market responded well to a new series of economic tariffs imposed internationally by the US Administration. All in all, it was a terrific week for this financial corner of the world, evident from the $320 billion boost that the market capitalization registered.
Bitcoin started the week trading at around $108,000 and only dipped toward $106K for a few hours. However, no one was expecting the mid-week bull run. That’s when the king of cryptocurrencies skyrocketed to new heights, setting a new ATH at $118,856. It was an impressive event for the entire crypto community and beyond.
The main reason for this surge may be that more and more institutional actors purchase BTC for extensive future holding. It is the case of companies like Metaplanet, GameStop, and Semler Scientific, which joined the likes of Glassnode, Block Inc., and Galaxy Digital Holdings. Their trust in BTC trickles down to smaller buyers, which in turn increases the overall reliability of the crypto market.
Ethereum continues its own surge and shutting down its doubters. The second crypto in command is trading at nearly $3,000 after a 9% increase. It is a remarkable run from Ethereum, which was closer to dropping below $2,000 only a few weeks ago.
Altcoins & DeFi
Most altcoins are trading in the green, with almost no exceptions. For example, XRP is up 24%, Solana is up 5%, Cardano is up 27%, Avalanche is up 18%, Sui is up 18%, Chainlink is up 17%, Hyperliquid is up 23%, and Stellar is up 85%.
The memecoins also joined the crypto market uptrend. For instance, Dogecoin is up 20%, Shiba Inu is up 13%, and Pepecoin is up 24%.
The Metaverse sector has also seen notable movements in the past week. For instance, Axie Infinity is up 16%, The Sandbox is up 26%, and Floki is up 18%. Meanwhile, Decentraland is up 22%, Render is up 18%, and ApeCoin is up 10%. Stacks increased by 20% and MultiversX by 17%. On the other hand, Virtuals is up by 12%.
The DeFi sector added nearly $20 billion to the total value locked in protocols (TVL), surging at around $126.20 billion.
