Bitcoin Nears $105K Amid Uplifting Weekend Economic News

Substantial Advances in global Trade Discussions Propel Cryptocurrency Growth

Over the recent weekend, the cryptocurrency market witnessed a significant bullish trend spurred by several key global economic updates. Predominantly driving this optimism was an announcement from former President Donald Trump concerning pivotal trade negotiations between the U.S. and China.
President Trump utilized his Truth Social platform to share insights from these discussions held in Switzerland. He described them as “a very good meeting” where “many things were discussed and much agreed to.” Highlighting the outcomes, Trump emphasized that a “total reset” had been negotiated which would foster a more open Chinese market to American businesses—an outcome described with enthusiasm as “GREAT PROGRESS MADE!!!”
Along with these promising trade talks, Saturday also brought news of immediate de-escalation in geopolitical tensions with President Trump announcing a complete ceasefire concerning the escalating situation between India and Pakistan.
Further supporting a positive outlook for international diplomacy was Russian president Vladimir Putin’s stance on engagement with Ukraine. In statements made earlier, he expressed readiness for “serious talks” aimed at resolving ongoing conflicts suggesting they proceed without preconditions next week in Turkey.
Amidst these global political relaxations and economic hopes, Bitcoin almost touched $105K but experienced slight resistance pulling back slightly to stand at $104,500—registering an increase of 1.5% over the last day period covered. Notably outperforming against this backdrop is Ethereum (ETH), which surged by 7.7% during the same time span.
The cascade of favorable macro news has not only eased investors’ fears but reignited sentiments across both financial markets and geopolitical landscapes suggesting possible further gains if these diplomatic advances are sustained or lead to substantive agreements.
