Seventy-two of the top 100 cryptocurrencies posted gains over the past seven days, against just 21 decliners. That ratio—better than three-to-one—marks one of the more lopsided weeks for market breadth in recent memory, even as the total market cap dipped 2.79% in the final 24-hour window before this snapshot.
Total market capitalisation stood at $2.70 trillion as of 7 September 13:33 UTC, with 24-hour trading volume at $74.46 billion. Bitcoin dominance held at 59.1%, Ethereum at 11.3%.
Everything below comes from data pulled 2026-09-07 13:33 UTC — see the live market overview, today’s movers, and the Fear & Greed index for where those numbers stand right now.
Bitcoin: $79,610, +2.3% on the week
Bitcoin closed the week at $79,610, up 2.3% over seven days. The range ran from a low of $76,591 to a high of $81,731—roughly a $5,100 spread, or about 6.5% of the week’s closing price.
Dominance at 59.1% suggests capital remains concentrated in the largest asset even as altcoins participated in the rally. The 24-hour pullback visible in the overall market cap change didn’t erase the weekly gain.
Ethereum: $2,507.12, +2.8% on the week
Ether finished at $2,507.12, up 2.8% for the week—slightly outpacing Bitcoin in percentage terms. Its range stretched from $2,371.22 to $2,526.10, with the weekly high arriving close to the snapshot time.
ETH dominance at 11.3% is roughly a fifth of Bitcoin’s share, though both majors moved in the same direction this week.
Breadth: 72 up, 21 down
The top three gainers tell a varied story. Pons (PONS) surged 117.9% to $0.814569; Arbitrum (ARB) rose 91.3% to $0.167025; Dash (DASH) added 54.3% to reach $68.11. Double-digit moves at the top, but the broad advance wasn’t limited to outliers—72 advancers is the headline.
On the losing side, Canton (CC) led decliners with a 9.2% drop to $0.108003. LEO Token fell 4.4% to $9.18, and Official Trump (TRUMP) slipped 3.1% to $2.30. Losses were shallow compared with the gains elsewhere.
Sentiment: Greed at 71
The Fear & Greed Index spent the entire week in “Greed” territory, starting at 62 on Monday 31 August and climbing to 74 by Friday before settling at 71 on Monday 7 September. No dips into neutral, no flirtations with fear—just a steady, slightly elevated appetite for risk across eight consecutive readings.
What the data does and doesn’t say
The numbers describe a week of broad participation and mild optimism: most coins up, majors grinding higher, sentiment stuck in greed. What they don’t explain is why breadth was so strong or whether the late 24-hour pullback signals anything beyond ordinary volatility. Data doesn’t forecast; it just keeps score.
