Leading cryptocurrencies rebounded Monday as President Donald Trump's brief tariff reprieve fueled positive sentiment in risk-on markets.
Cryptocurrency | Gains +/- | Price (Recorded at 7:45 p.m. ET) |
Bitcoin BTC/USD | +5.14% | $101,349.10 |
Ethereum ETH/USD | +1.46% | $2,860.84 |

What Happened: Bitcoin surged past $100,000, a day after plunging below $92,000. The leading cryptocurrency hit an intraday high of $102,500 before paring gains overnight.
Ethereum chalked out modest gains, but the second-largest cryptocurrency was yet to reclaim the pre-slump levels. Dogecoin rallied 15%, erasing significant losses from the Sunday decline.
Cryptocurrency liquidations hit $1.56 billion over the last 24 hours, with longs accounting for over $1 billion.
If Bitcoin retraces to $95,000 again, over $1 billion in upside bets will be wiped out.
More than 55% of Bitcoin futures traders were short Bitcoin, according to the Long/Short Ratio, signaling a potential drop.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin's Open Interest rose 2.36% in the last 24 hours, suggesting a surge in speculative trading.
Market sentiment flipped from "Fear" to "Greed", according to the Crypto Fear & Greed Index.

Analyst Notes: Popular cryptocurrency analyst and trader Rekt Capital noted Bitcoin's recovery to the $101,000 level.
"Now BTC needs to daily close above it and retest it successfully to reclaim it into support," the analyst remarked. "Until then – $101,000 needs to prove it is not a new resistance."
Another well-known analyst, Ali Martinez, spotted a potential head-and-shoulders pattern for Ethereum.
"ETH must hold above $2,700 to keep the bullish structure intact and have a chance of reaching $7,000," Martinez projected.
The inverse head and shoulders pattern is a bullish reversal pattern, indicating exhaustion of a prolonged downturn.
