Crypto prices today stumbled upward like a drunken aristocrat at a teetotaler’s ball, buoyed by geopolitical theatrics that would make a Victorian novelist blush.
- Market cap swelled 1.7% to $3.8 trillion-because nothing says “financial maturity” like gambling on digital tulips.
- White House confirms Trump-Xi meet-cute in South Korea, proving even trade wars need a chaperone 🤝.
- Inflation looms like a bad penny, but who cares? Let them eat Bitcoin! 💸
The total crypto market cap-our favorite economic parlor trick-rose 1.7% to $3.8 trillion. Bitcoin, ever the drama queen, pranced back to $111,353 (+2.1%). Ethereum hovered at $3,948 (+3.1%), BNB pirouetted to $1,136 (+4.4%), and XRP tip-toed up 1.7% to $2.42. Truly, a spectacle.
The Crypto Fear & Greed Index, that bastion of emotional investing, inched up to 30-a “fear” zone so persistent it’s practically a lifestyle. CoinGlass ominously reports $242 million in liquidations, mostly from traders who mistook leverage for skill. 📉
Open interest ballooned 3.2% to $153 billion, because nothing says “I’ve learned my lesson” like doubling down after getting spanked. RSI sits at 54-a neutral zone so bland it could broker peace in the Middle East.
Trump-Xi Summit: A Diplomatic Tea Party?
The White House, in a rare moment of coherence, confirmed Trump and Xi will hold hands at APEC. Investors collectively sighed, forgetting last week’s tantrum when tariffs loomed like a thundercloud over their crypto picnic.
Recall October’s $19 billion liquidation-a bloodbath caused by Trump’s “100% tariffs!” theatrics and China’s rare-earth hissy fit. Now we’re supposed to believe this summit will fix everything? 🌐♟️
Stock markets yawned politely (Dow +0.31%, Nasdaq +0.89%), dragging crypto along like an obedient puppy. Analysts, ever the optimists, predict BTC could rocket to $115k if diplomacy prevails-or crash to $105k if they throw teacups at each other. 🚨
CZ’s Pardon: A Crypto Cinderella Story?
In more absurdity, Trump pardoned Binance‘s exiled emperor CZ, calling his punishment “Biden’s overreach.” Because nothing says “pro-crypto” like clemency for regulatory violations! 🧙♂️✨
Yet all eyes now fixate on CPI data-a number that could either send BTC to the moon or into a debtor’s prison. Economists predict 0.4% monthly inflation. Will it be a “soft landing” or a “hard faceplant”? Place your bets! 🎰
