On Monday, global markets were dominated by escalating geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran, driving a clearly split market pattern. US and European stocks fell across the board, US bond yields rose across the board, and the 30-year US Treasury yield first broke above 5% since July last year. The US Dollar Index strengthened, heavily pressuring precious metals, which dropped sharply. Meanwhile, concerns about a Middle East shipping crisis and conflicts directly boosted international oil prices with a strong rebound. Against the backdrop of broad pressure on traditional risk assets—while gold and silver weakened as real interest rates rose— the crypto market delivered an independent countertrend move: supported by weekend volatility and upward momentum, Bitcoin once again ramped up and regained the key high around $80,700. Ethereum also tested the $2,400 level at the same time, lifting a range of altcoins in tandem. Adding to this, US stocks and crypto-related stocks such as Circle and Micron Technology surged against the trend, fully showing that today’s crypto market has multiple characteristics: geopolitical risk hedging, institutional capital support, and sector sentiment rotation. In an environment of global macro turbulence, high interest rates, and rising geopolitical risk, it has produced an independent upward structure that diverges from traditional stocks, bonds, and gold. Going forward, we still need to closely watch the evolution of US-Iran developments, the trend in US bond yields, and the strength of the US dollar to judge whether this crypto rebound can continue and break through. Yibo will keep tracking the Fed’s policy implementation, changes in institutional capital flows, and shifts in on-chain data, updating the strategy layout and target asset dynamics in real time.

Yesterday, Bitcoin went through a fierce tug-of-war between bulls and bears during the trading session. In the early session, it surged in a straight line from a low of $78,200 to $80,600, then quickly pulled back to around $78,100 due to news impact. In the evening, it pushed higher again and refreshed the high to $80,749, and is currently in intense competition around the $80,000 level. From a technical standpoint, the daily timeframe is still in a high-level consolidation range. The $78,000–$78,200 area has repeatedly retested and confirmed as support for the second time, forming strong support. Meanwhile, the $80,800–$81,000 area above forms a resistance barrier for a short-term bullish breakout. On the weekly timeframe, the market remains in a bullish alignment. The medium-term uptrend has not been broken, and the current pullback can be viewed as an accumulation phase. The 4-hour chart shows a relatively bullish consolidation pattern of “dipping, rebounding, and making new highs.” Lows are gradually rising, but the rapid pullback after the spike also indicates that overhead sell pressure should not be underestimated. Overall, bulls and bears are stuck in a stalemate around the $80,000 range, and the short-term direction needs to wait for a confirmed breakout. For execution, conservative traders may look for low-long opportunities in the pullback area of $78,500–$79,000, with defense (stop) set below $78,000. If it puts volume behind a sustained move and holds above $80,800, it could open the door to a new wave of upside. In an environment where news disturbances are frequent, it’s recommended to control position size and set strict stop-losses, taking a mildly bullish consolidation approach to respond.

Yesterday, Ethereum’s performance was clearly weaker than Bitcoin’s. Overall, it showed a consolidation pattern of “rallies capped at highs, pullbacks supported, and weak rebounds.” After opening at $2,308 in the morning, it briefly surged to $2,397, but faced pressure and fell back without touching the $2,400 psychological level. In the afternoon, it quickly dropped to a low of $2,313 due to news impact. In the early morning, it attempted a second push up to $2,381, but the rebound highs gradually moved lower. It is currently oscillating around $2,350. From a technical perspective: the daily timeframe is still in a repair phase after the earlier large bearish candle. For two consecutive days, the price has been capped by the $2,400 level. The MA30 moving average (around $2420) provides strong suppression, and the $2,280–$2,300 area below is a key support zone in the near term. The 4-hour chart shows a converging triangle consolidation pattern with “lower highs and higher lows.” The MACD fast and slow lines are sticking together below the zero axis, with a weak momentum histogram. The RSI hovers around 45, indicating a relatively balanced but not yet clearly directional battle between bulls and bears. On the 1-hour timeframe, the early-morning rebound high of $2,381 is clearly lower than the previous day’s high of $2,397, forming a short-term descending pressure line. The current price is trading near the $2,350 midline. The Bollinger Bands are narrowing, suggesting that a trend change is approaching. Overall, Ethereum’s bullish momentum is fading. If it still can’t firmly hold the $2,380–$2,400 resistance zone, it will likely still need to revisit support at $2,310–$2,295. On execution, it’s important to closely watch whether Bitcoin can effectively hold the $80,000 level: if the broader market strengthens, Ethereum may have a chance to catch up; otherwise, it will continue to maintain weak, sideways consolidation.
