The crypto market has made a strong recovery after a substantial weekend dip that saw Bitcoin (BTC) and other cryptocurrencies slip to multi-month lows. The recovery came after President Donald Trump announced that Israel and Iran had agreed to a ceasefire. Iran had earlier completed a de-escalatory airstrike on the al-Udeid airbase, the largest American base in West Asia. BTC plunged to a low of $98,385 on Sunday as market sentiment worsened after the US launched airstrikes on key Iranian nuclear sites. However, a strong recovery has seen the flagship cryptocurrency reclaim $105,000. BTC is up nearly 4% over the past 24 hours, trading around $105,035. Ethereum (ETH) has also substantially recovered, having reclaimed $2,400 and trading around $2,405. The world’s second-largest cryptocurrency is up over 7% in the past 24 hours. Ripple (XRP) is also up over 7%, trading around $2.17. Solana (SOL) has reclaimed $140, with the price up over 8%, while Dogecoin (DOGE) is up nearly 8%, trading around $0.165. Cardano (ADA) , Chainlink (LINK) , Stellar (XLM) , Toncoin (TON) , Hedera (HBAR) , Litecoin (LTC) , and Polkadot (DOT) also registered substantial increases. As a result, the crypto market cap is up over 4%. Dow Jones Up 200 Points US stocks registered gains despite Iran’s attack on a US airbase in Qatar as tensions threatened to escalate yet again. Major US stock indices registered small increases despite the US entering the Israel-Iran conflict. The Dow Jones rose 270 points, while the S&P 500 registered an increase of 0.39%. The tech-heavy Nasdaq was up almost 1%, while oil prices fell 5%. The timing of the airstrikes on Iran, conducted when the markets were shut, could be the reason behind the market’s muted reaction. Oil traded slightly higher despite fears of drastic measures by Iran. Major Cryptocurrencies Up As President Trump Announces Ceasefire President Trump has announced that Israel and Iran have agreed to a complete ceasefire, which will begin in a few hours. The ceasefire ends what Trump referred to as the “12-Day War” in a post on Truth Social. According to the post, the ceasefire will unfold in two phases, with Iran observing it for the first 12 hours, followed by Israel. Trump also stated that Iran had notified the US before launching attacks on a US military base in Qatar, adding that there were no casualties during the attack, suggesting they were de-escalatory. The ceasefire follows a significant escalation in hostilities over the weekend as both countries intensified air attacks. The US also joined the conflict and conducted air strikes on key Iranian nuclear facilities. Recent talk of a ceasefire saw markets recover, with Bitcoin (BTC) rising over 5% after plunging below $100,000 over the weekend. Other altcoins, including Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and Ripple (XRP), also made substantial gains. Democratic Senator Introduces Bill Against President Trump’s Crypto Ties California Senator Adam Schiff and nine Democratic lawmakers have introduced a bill to prevent the “financial exploitation of digital assets” by President Trump and other Public officials. Schiff and several Democratic Senators announced the introduction of the Curbing Officials’ Income and Nondisclosure, or COIN Act, in response to Trump’s entanglements with the cryptocurrency industry. The legislation comes after President Trump’s disclosure of $57.4 million in income tied to World Liberty Financial (WLF). Senator Schiff stated, “President Donald Trump’s cryptocurrency dealings have raised significant ethical, legal, and constitutional concerns over his use of the office of the presidency to enrich himself and his family. That’s why I am introducing legislation to prevent the financial exploitation of any digital assets by public officials, including the president and the First Family.” Crypto ETFs Post $1.2B In Inflows Crypto investment products continued registering inflows as investor interest remained strong despite BTC and other cryptocurrencies registering notable declines. Crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) registered $1.24 billion in inflows for the week ending Friday, according to data sourced from CoinShares. The latest inflows allowed crypto ETPs to break year-to-date inflows and set a new historic high of over $15.1 billion. However, despite the inflows, the total assets under management (AUM) in crypto ETPs fell marginally from $179 billion to $176.3 billion. Bitcoin ETPs registered a second-consecutive week of inflows totaling over $1.1 billion, despite prices dropping to a low of $103,000 by the end of the week. According to James Butterfill, CoinShares head of research, the resisting growth in the Bitcoin ETP dynamics despite a decline in spot prices indicates investors were buying on weakness. “This sentiment was further supported by minor outflows from short-Bitcoin products, which totaled $1.4 million.” Bitcoin (BTC) Price Analysis Bitcoin (BTC) has registered a sharp recovery after spending the weekend in the doldrums. The flagship cryptocurrency registered a sharp decline over the weekend as market sentiment worsened as the conflict between Israel and Iran escalated. The US also entered the war, conducting precision strikes on key Iranian sites, sending the crypto market into a tailspin. As a result, BTC fell 1.17% on Saturday and plunged below $100,000 on Sunday, falling to a low of $98,385 before recovering to reclaim $100,000 and settle at $100,982. However, bullish sentiment returned on Monday after President Trump announced a ceasefire, with BTC surging over 4% to reclaim $105,000. BTC’s dip over the weekend saw substantial exchange outflows, with analysts from Nansen suggesting investors were buying the dip instead of panicking. Nicolai Søndergaard, Research Analyst at Nansen, stated, “We are seeing exchange outflows, so it is likely that people, regardless of being retail or institutions, are buying the dip. Generally, when it comes to war and other external factors that disrupt things globally, there tends to be heavy short-term dips which later rebound.” BTC reclaimed $105,000 on Monday, a day after it plunged to a low of $98,385, indicating volatility. Traders are now waiting to see if BTC pushes towards $110,000 or encounters more downside risk. According to analysts, BTC and the broader crypto market could see further downsides after Qatar stated that it had reserved the right to respond to Iran’s attack. Meanwhile, Iraq, Kuwait, Bahrain, and the UAE have shut down their airspace. BTC started the previous weekend on a positive note despite plunging to an intraday low of $102,854.
