Dogecoin, XRP Lead Crypto Rebound, Bitcoin Tops $96K as Traders Await Key Inflation Data

Crypto prices bounced from Monday's wipeout with bitcoin (BTC) rising as high as $97,300 on Tuesday as traders eyed the latest batch of U.S. inflation data with more to come tomorrow.The largest crypto's dip below $90,000 yesterday was quickly bought up on reports that Donald Trump is preparing first-day executive orders benefitting the crypto industry. The advance continued today, supported by softer than expected U.S. Producer Price Index (PPI) readings for December.BTC recently changed hands at $96,500, up 3% over the past 24 hours, while the broad-market benchmark CoinDesk 20 Index outperformed with a 5% gain. Ripple's XRP and dogecoin (DOGE) led altcoin majors with 6%-7% advances.In traditional markets, the tech-heavy Nasdaq and the S&P 500 closed roughly flat.Zooming out, bitcoin is still consolidating sideways above $90,000 while soaring bond yields and U.S. dollar shook markets across the globe over the past weeks. Market participants have already scaled back expectations for lower interest rates in the U.S. this year amidst recent hot U.S. economic data releases.Wednesday's Consumer Price Index (CPI) report could inject another burst of volatility to markets and provide further clues for traders into the Federal Reserve's policy trajectory for the year.Looking past that, Trump's inauguration ceremony slated for Jan. 20 could also move markets as anticipation builds for the incoming president's pro-crypto actions.K33 Research previously projected that the inauguration could be an opportunistic sell-the-news event amidst heightened expectations, but the early-year sell-off in stocks and digital assets made the firm revise its view."While our monthly outlook favored selling the inauguration, we’d like to rephrase this strategy as selling BTC at the inauguration is considerably less appealing unless the coming six days offer a substantial resurfacing of momentum" the report said. "The S&P 500 closed its post-election gap yesterday, and BTC reached 2-month lows.""De-risking would be entirely path-dependent on next week’s price action and short-lived in nature as we hold bullish long-term expectations for Trump’s impact on BTC," the authors added.

The Daily: Sony's blockchain launch faces memecoin backlash, bitcoin analysts rethink Trump inauguration strategy and more

Sony’s blockchain subsidiary launched the mainnet of its Ethereum Layer 2, Soneium, on Tuesday, targeting content creators and their communities, but faced a memecoin-related backlash. Analysts at K33 previously favored selling bitcoin at the Jan. 20 inauguration as heightened expectations from Trump’s pro-crypto campaign promises met the reality of Washington’s often slow-paced political machine. However, selling the news has become less attractive as the inauguration approaches.Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan said companies like MicroStrategy buying bitcoin are an “overlooked megatrend,” with the number of corporate holders “poised to explode” amid reduced reputational risk and new FASB accounting rules.The following article is adapted from The Block’s newsletter, The Daily, which comes out on weekday afternoons.

Spot Bitcoin ETFs Exceeded Expectations in 2024, but Just Wait for 2025

To say that the spot bitcoin exchange traded funds (ETFs) exceeded expectations in their first year on the market is an understatement at best. Instead, it might be more accurate to say that they’ve shocked the industry to its core.“Just how big was the first year for Bitcoin ETFs?” Bloomberg Intelligence ETF analyst James Seyffart wrote on X. “MASSIVE.”BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) had the most successful launch in the history of U.S. ETFs, accumulating more than $52.3 billion worth of assets in its first year (a combination of large inflows and the sharp rise in the price of bitcoin), according to Seyffart.Three of the other spot bitcoin ETFs, the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC), the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB) and the Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB) — were also among the top 20 U.S. ETF launches of all time.The last twelve months in crypto were “momentous,” said Matt Horne, head of digital asset strategists at Fidelity Investments. Indeed, FBTC is the fund management giant's largest exchange-traded product at nearly $19 billion in assets under management, according to the company website.“While we were optimistic for the launch of the bitcoin ETPs, demand exceeded our expectations across all client segments including retail investors, advisors, institutions and beyond,” Horne said. “Given these products have seen tremendous asset growth and now have a year of performance, we expect to see continued adoption across both the advisor and institutional client segments.”While some hedge funds or pension funds allocated modest money into the spot ETFs, the majority of inflows came from nonprofessional investors. That, however, could change.“The record flows occurred despite the foot dragging by some wire houses, financial advisors and some U.S. financial firms prohibiting employees from even owning bitcoin or altcoins in their personal portfolios,” Mark Connors, founder and chief investment strategist at Risk Dimensions, told CoinDesk.“With more support from the RIA/Advisors and wire houses likely and the tailwind of price, 2025s flows will easily surpass 2024s," he added.According to Nate Geraci, president of the ETF Store, 2025 could be the “Year of Crypto ETFs.” He predicts that over 50 more crypto ETFs will be approved under new leadership at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including spot Solana and XRP funds, as well as options-based and equities-based products.“Gary Gensler always referred to crypto as the “Wild West,” Geraci wrote in a post on The ETF Educator. “Under the Trump administration, I think that is exactly what we’ll get from an ETF perspective.”
