Cryptocurrency market recovered from the weekend’s sharp drop with an overnight rally that saw a $220 million inflow into the crypto ecosystem. Bitcoin led the recovery by climbing above $100,000 once again, re-establishing bullish confidence among crypto users who expect prices to climb higher.

President Donald Trump’s policies announced last week triggered the price tumble the crypto market experienced over the weekend. Bitcoin plunged to $91,530 by early Monday morning. However, it recovered from Monday’s decline to surge past $100,000, hitting a daily high of $102,569 before closing at $101,457.

Tariff Pause Eases Trade Tensions

On Monday, Trump backtracked on his increased tariff policy toward Mexico, suspending implementation and opening the situation up for negotiation between the two countries. According to reports, Trump and Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum agreed to pause the US-Mexico tariff for one month. Mexico will send 10,000 guard troops during this period to help secure the border.

This recovery pattern demonstrates how crypto bulls rejected the drop, hinting at the market’s potential to climb higher after reclaiming key support levels.
