📺 The economic noise and its impact on crypto markets has been undeniable. But even with the Fed flashing warning signals and tariff concerns far from over, Bitcoin & altcoins have a path to rise. We discuss with Equities Tracker in our latest video!

🇺🇸📈 BREAKING: Donald Trump has just announced a 90-day pause on all tariffs, with the exception of China. This has resulted in immediate gains for cryptocurrencies and stock markets as traders FOMO back into markets.

This positive news (albeit a temporary alleviation to a still ongoing issue) follows a false 'buy the rumor, sell the news' event where there was a misreported tariff pause just 48 hours ago on Monday, and more disappointing news of USA's hike to 104% China tariffs on Tuesday.

Fundamentals remain very hazy and hard to rely upon, outside of the crowd's greed and fear working well as a counter-indicator. In these unprecedented times, the market's over reactive nature to any breaking tariff news is the signal to watch.

For the time being, traders who had been buying the dip over the past week have been handsomely rewarded:

📌 Bitcoin has rebounded to $82.6K

📌 Ethereum has rebounded to $1.65K

📌 S&P 500 is +8.1% on the day

📌 Nasdaq is +10.0% on the day

🤑 Crypto finally saw a temporary jump in market caps following the weekend bloodbath. Trade war fears are being slightly alleviated by Asian and European countries showing willingness to negotiate with the US on tariff policies.

This has resulted in Bitcoin's crowd sentiment turning slightly positive again, and Ethereum's sentiment returning to neutral territory (after being at some of its most negative sentiment levels in years these past few days).

📉 Trading volume among crypto's 10 largest stablecoins has dropped to roughly 1/4th of the level we saw in the midst of the bull cycle in early December. Several factors are contributing to this:

📌 Trader Fatigue: Following the all-time high top back on January 19th, both institutional and retail traders have increasingly moved capital and taken profits while awaiting new catalysts.

📌 There have been new regulatory announcements in major markets, raising the level of uncertainty and causing traders of all sizes to take more of a 'hodling' approach for the time being

📌 Bitcoin's supply on exchanges recently reached a 7-year low, indicating trader contentment with executing less on-chain trading on a daily basis

🥳 In a solid start to crypto's week, Bitcoin reached as high as $88.5K for the first time in 17 days. Ethereum also jumped above $2,100 for the first time in 14 days. Comments across social media are becoming quite positive, indicating many expect this rally to continue.

👋 Thanks to the many DeFi and staking options, Ethereum's holders have now brought the available supply on exchanges down to 8.97M, the lowest amount in nearly 10 years (November, 2015). There is 16.4% less $ETH on exchanges compared to just 7 weeks ago. 😮

📺 Our latest video with Thinking Crypto takes a look at some of the rebounds in crypto, and whether they have some staying power this time around. We also deep dive on metrics for Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and Solana.

🥲 The crypto community's sentiment toward Ethereum continues to drop more and more over time. The #2 market cap's value sits at $1,865 at the time of this writing, and the more FUD that continues to show, the better the argument gets for an eventual unexpected $ETH breakout.
