BitMart Market Weekly Report 10.20-10.26

This Week's Cryptocurrency Market Dynamics

Bitcoin spot ETFs continue to see net outflows, with a cumulative outflow of approximately $366 million. After peaking in early October, Bitcoin has been fluctuating in the $106,000--$112,000 range, with short-term resistance from the MA20 pressure level. The current candlestick pattern shows a series of small-bodied candles, indicating strong market hesitation. Trading volume has significantly shrunk compared to previous periods, with capital inflow and outflow slowing down. The MACD indicator's dual lines remain below the zero axis, with the red bars shortening and turning green again, indicating a continued weakening of momentum and limited short-term rebound power. If the price remains pressured below $116,000, watch for the possibility of a retest of the $108,000 and $105,000 support zones; conversely, if it breaks through the MA30 with volume, it may reopen the rebound space.
ETH has continued a weak oscillation pattern over the past week, with prices fluctuating around the $3,800 mark, constrained by the dual pressure of MA20 and MA60. Although buying support at lower levels limits the downside, there is still a lack of effective rebound momentum overall. The MACD dual lines are close to the lower levels without forming a golden cross, and the bars are shortening below the zero axis, indicating that bearish momentum is marginally weakening but bulls have yet to take over. If ETH cannot stabilize in the $3,850--$3,900 range, the market may continue to consolidate at low levels; only if it breaks through the upper moving average resistance with volume can a short-term rebound be confirmed.

U.S. Market Overview and Hot News

Despite several companies reporting relatively strong earnings, the overall market price trend remains sluggish, as investors are generally waiting for the latest news regarding a potential meeting between Xi Jinping and Donald Trump, as this meeting could determine the direction of the current U.S.-China trade war. On Wednesday, Trump stated to reporters at the White House that he expects to reach agreements with China on trade, soybeans, and even nuclear weapons, claiming, "I believe we will ultimately reach a great trade agreement with China." On October 23, the White House announced that Trump would meet with Xi Jinping during his visit to Asia on October 30. Asset prices cautiously reflected Trump's optimistic expectations— the S&P index rose slightly, BTC increased by 2.1%, while ETH fell by 0.3%. Meanwhile, gold prices fell sharply as investors took profits after last week's surge in gold prices.

Popular Sectors and Project Unlocks

Wallet Sector
This week, the Wallet sector performed outstandingly, with an overall increase of 44.5%, becoming one of the focal points of capital attention. As the market's demand for on-chain asset security and self-management rises, several wallet-related tokens have recorded strong rebounds, with representative projects like KARAT, TPAY, GMD, and SWTH leading the gains. The warming of capital combined with project narrative updates has significantly outperformed the broader market over the past week. Overall, the rise in the Wallet sector reflects the market's renewed focus on self-custody wallets, account abstraction (AA), and on-chain identity (DID) tracks. Against the backdrop of crypto capital inflow and innovation at the application layer, wallet projects are gradually evolving from "tool products" to "ecological entry points," with increasing enthusiasm from both capital and developers.
