Gate Research Weekly Report: BTC surged to $69,305 over the past 24 hours before giving back gains and entering a weaker consolidation phase, while ETH continued to show stronger structure than BTC, rebounding to as high as $2,168 with upside momentum easing at elevated levels. The altcoin market remained structurally mixed, with about 51.02% of tokens posting gains, led by the DID and NFT trading sectors. Stablecoin market capitalization rose to $316.3 billion, up by $640 million over the past week, while Ethereum gas fees remained at low levels. The Drift Protocol exploit, confirmation of the BITA ticker, and approval for options on multi-crypto asset commodity trusts further increased market focus on security risks, yield-enhanced ETF products, and the institutionalization of crypto derivatives. In the coming seven days, HYPE, ENA, and OPN are set to unlock approximately $12.00 million, $19.16 million, and $5.52 million worth of tokens respectively, which may introduce short-term supply pressure.
