The coming week in crypto will bring a positive development in the case of Ethereum's Fusaka upgrade being applied to the Sepolia testnet.

However, concerns remain over the crypto market in general as the U.S. government continues its shutdown, which has halted several crypto ETF applications in their tracks.

The crypto market sold off on Friday and the new week will serve as a barometer as to whether bitcoin can claw its way back to record highs, or whether it will enter a seemingly never-ending range between $110,000 and $125,000.
