Cryptocurrency markets kicked off the week with renewed momentum, led by Bitcoin’s strong rebound and a surge in interest around U.S. digital asset policy. A notable development is Trump Media & Technology Group’s (DJT) announcement of a planned entry into the crypto ETF space, signaling a potentially new chapter in the intersection of politics, media, and decentralized finance.
As the regulatory landscape around crypto continues to evolve, this move could carry significant implications for both investors and the broader perception of digital assets in the U.S. market.
Bitcoin Rallies on Softer Tariff Rhetoric
Bitcoin rose sharply Monday after President Trump signaled a more flexible approach to the reciprocal tariffs expected to roll out April 2. His softer stance temporarily eased investor concerns and gave risk assets—including cryptocurrencies—a chance to breathe.
By Tuesday morning, Bitcoin was trading just under $87,300, down slightly from its Monday peak of $88,800 but still up meaningfully on the week. The rebound follows recent volatility driven by macroeconomic factors, including trade policy uncertainty and upcoming U.S. inflation data.
