US–China Trade Talks: Crypto's Risk & Reward Inflection
The recent US–China trade negotiations in London are drawing close attention from crypto traders. Historically, positive outcomes—like the 90-day tariff pause announced in May—have spurred rallies in Bitcoin (BTC), which jumped above $105,000, although some gains were later paused by profit-taking and uncertainty . In contrast, failed talks tend to pressure altcoins: a recent stall in negotiations triggered declines of 3–6% in ETH, XRP, SOL, and DOGE .
This week’s talks could again swing market sentiment. Should progress be reported, expect a boost in BTC and select altcoins. But renewed tensions may prompt risk-off behavior, pressuring volatile assets while strengthening Bitcoin’s safe-haven narrative.
Key Levels to Watch
BTC: Support at ~$105K; resistance near $109–110K
ETH & Altcoins: Monitor reaction post-trade headlines
Stay alert—US–China trade dynamics remain a major macro driver for crypto momentum.
