The 4 Crypto Market Movers Everyone’s Watching This Week

Key Notes

The week will start with the Trump-Zelenskyy meeting.
The FOMC Minutes and Powell’s speech are key economic events to move the crypto market.
More unemployment claims are expected to be reported, which might trigger a short-term selloff.

The crypto market remained strong last week with Bitcoin (BTC) hitting a new all-time high and Ethereum (ETH) getting very close to its 2021 peak.

Bitcoin reached an ATH of $124,457 on Aug. 14. Ethereum touched the $4,788 zone.

However, financial markets, including crypto assets, are likely to enter a highly volatile zone this week due to four key events that analysts and investors are closely watching.
