Key Points
Investors are seeing bullish signals for the crypto market.
Bitcoin (BTC 1.78%) is posting substantial gains in a day of rebound trading for the broader crypto market. The cryptocurrency’s token price had risen 2% over the previous 24 hours of trading, as of 5 p.m. ET Monday.
Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are moving higher today as investors make trades in response to signs that some key risk factors could be moderating. With recent rebound momentum, Bitcoin has now cut its valuation loss over the last week to approximately 7%.

On the heels of some significant sell-offs, the cryptocurrency market has recently been seeing some positive rebound momentum. While investors have been worried about U.S. debt ceiling negotiations, the government shutdown, and trade issues with China, investors got some reassuring news on those fronts today. A White House advisor indicated that negotiations could draw the government shutdown to a close this week, and U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent also indicated that trade tensions between the U.S. and China had recently de-escalated.
Bitcoin has seen some significant valuation swings across 2025’s trading, but the cryptocurrency’s token price is still up approximately 17% across the stretch.
In addition to government shutdown and trade war news, investors are also buying into Bitcoin today, thanks to expectations that the Federal Reserve is nearly locked into delivering another rate cut at its meeting in October. While investors are more split on whether the Fed will issue another rate cut at its December meeting, optimism surrounding another rate reduction is rising. If the Fed issues two more rate cuts this year, that would likely be a bullish catalyst for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
