Key Factors Behind Surge
CoinDCX Research Team said that the past weekend turned out to be bullish for the crypto markets on the back of several factors, such as the recent fruitful trade discussions between the US and China. This led to market stability by triggering the liquidation of millions of short positions.
Vikram Subburaj, CEO of Giottus.com, said that Bitcoin climbed back to the $115,000 zone over the weekend as easing US-China trade tensions lifted risk appetite across markets.
“For now, sentiment is cautiously optimistic, as there is some measured rotation back into risk with one eye fixed on the macro calendar. This appears to be a relief-led bounce, so investors should keep position sizes modest and prioritise liquid majors like Bitcoin and Ethereum until macro cues confirm broader risk appetite,” he said.
With a 25-basis-point rate cut now almost certain at 98.3 per cent, on-chain data indicates easing selling pressure, signalling the possibility of a renewed bull run. CoinDCX said that “most tokens broke past key resistance levels”.
What’s Ahead
Edul Patel, CEO of Mudrex said that this trend is expected to continue, potentially supporting a sustainable rally in the coming weeks.
“Over the past few months, Bitcoin has hit multiple all-time highs, and with Q4 typically being a bullish phase, the momentum could persist. If the trend holds, Bitcoin could trade between $130,000 and $150,000 by the year-end,” he said.
He added that investors should monitor macro developments and the US Federal Reserve’s policy stance, as rate cuts and quantitative easing decisions may influence market direction. A steady, long-term approach with smaller, regular investments is advisable, he added.
