Crypto Rebound: Bitcoin & Ethereum Bounce After Tariff Shock

Following one of the worst single-day drops in recent memory tied to trade tensions and tariff announcements, the crypto market staged a modest recovery. Bitcoin rose to about US$115,700, recovering from lows near US$109,000. Ethereum bounced back above US$4,250, after falling to ~$3,620. Investors.com

This rebound seems to have been catalyzed by more conciliatory language from U.S. leadership toward China, which eased fears of prolonged conflict. Investor optimism has crept back, with some market participants viewing this as a chance to enter at lower prices. Investors.com

Implications & Strategy Tips

• Such rebounds are often fragile. Watch for resistance zones—Bitcoin’s recent high ~US$126,000 remains a key target but may prove difficult to break unless inflows are strong.
• Ethereum's recovery indicates strength in smart contract and DeFi sectors, often more volatile but offering more upside potential.
• Traders should watch volume; strong volume on upward moves gives more confidence the recovery is real.
