Bitcoin has seen solid growth to break back above the $7,000 mark today, August 7.
Bitcoin is trading around $7,118 at press time, up around 2.5 percent on the day.
Today's growth has not yet pushed the coin's weekly price change back into the green which still remains at around an 8 percent loss.
Fundstrat's head of research and well-known Bitcoin bull Tom Lee today used his firm's recently launched Bitcoin Misery Index to evaluate the coin's current market momentum.
Ethereum is currently trading around $409, up around one percent on the day to press time.
The altcoin is now closing its losses on its weekly chart: while the asset is still down around $20 from its price point at the beginning of August, only yesterday its weekly value loss was above $50. Closing down to a 6 percentage loss on the week, Ethereum is still around 1.5 percent in the red on its monthly chart.
