Last Week’s Market Highlights:
Alpha Mining: Amid the US-Iran conflict, volatility in gold, crude oil, and crypto markets has intensified. Over the past week, BTC experienced a rapid decline on the 4-hour chart, then gradually entered a low-range consolidation and recovery phase. ETH’s overall performance over the past week was weaker than BTC, still showing a downward structure. NEAR increased approximately 39.62% in total, making it the most prominent strong performer in this cycle.
On-Chain Funds: Arbitrum saw a net outflow of about $235 million, with funds mainly diverted to Base, Ethereum, and Hyperliquid. Geopolitical conflicts have increased volatility in oil and gold, prompting some funds to retreat to safe assets, while others shifted to on-chain macro trading and hedging, reflecting portfolio rebalancing rather than full exit. Meanwhile, Polymarket has driven Polygon transaction fees to high levels, indicating that real-world events are accelerating the flow of cash onto the chain.
