Here's the English translation: Last night's crypto market was like a canvas of stark contrasts: Bitcoin and Ethereum quietly rebounded, breaking through $85,000 and $1,900 respectively, with a sense of "veteran's return"; while the Altcoin market was in complete disarray, with ACT token plummeting 58%, and other small cryptocurrencies not spared, as if collectively cursed on April Fool's Day. What exactly happened?

Bitcoin and Ethereum: Dual Support from Policy Expectations and ETF Recovery

Bitcoin and Ethereum: Dual Support from Policy Expectations and ETF Recovery

First, let's look at Bitcoin. Last night, it rebounded from its intraday low, breaking through $85,000, with BTCD (Bitcoin market dominance) reaching 62.56%, a new high since February this year. Meanwhile, Ethereum also saw a long-awaited breakthrough, standing above $1,900, demonstrating rare resilience. This rebound was not a sudden frenzy, but the result of multiple positive factors converging.

Market Divergence: Stable Large-cap, Chaotic Small-cap, Dominated by FUD Sentiment

Last night's market showed a clear divergence. Bitcoin and Ethereum steadily rebounded with support from institutional funds, policy expectations, and ETF recovery, while Altcoins collapsed due to insufficient market confidence. Currently, during the early stage of the new Trump government, the market generally expects that its "America First" policy might bring tariff adjustments, especially with tariff policies targeting Chinese goods expected to be implemented tomorrow. At this critical point, market confidence is fragile, and investors are full of concerns about macroeconomic uncertainties, where any slight movement could trigger FUD sentiment.

The Altcoin market was hit first. Small cryptocurrencies like ACT already have weak liquidity, and Binance's rule adjustments were just the fuse, with market panic sentiment being the real driver. Investors worry that tariff implementation might lead to global economic slowdown, with risk assets being the first to be affected, and Altcoins, as high-volatility assets, becoming the primary target for selling. In comparison, Bitcoin and Ethereum demonstrated stronger resilience due to support from institutional funds and policy expectations.
