XRP, BTC, ETH price prediction: Crypto markets surge 5.5% adding 94.5 billion in market capitalization as Trump tariff reversal triggers renewed bullish momentum.
XRP, and ETH outperforming BTC rally as Trump slashes global tariffs, excludes China
The global cryptocurrency market staged a sharp rebound on Wednesday, climbing back above a $2.7 trillion total market capitalization, after former U.S. President Donald Trump announced a sweeping revision to his controversial tariff policy.
The decision, which reduces tariffs for all U.S. trade partners to a flat 10% rate—excluding China—was met with a surge in investor confidence across global financial markets, including digital assets.
Bitcoin (BTC) led the rebound, recovering from a steep intraweek decline that had seen prices fall to $74,600. By mid-Wednesday, BTC had surged 6.5% to trade above $82,600, as traders digested the implications of the trade policy shift.
Ethereum (ETH) and Ripple’s XRP posted even stronger rallies, each gaining over 10% in the hours following the announcement, outperforming Bitcoin in percentage terms as the market repriced reduced geopolitical risk and renewed liquidity flows.
How will Bitcoin, Ripple (XRP) and Ethereum (ETH) prices react to Trump’s tariff cuts?
The policy shift marks a significant U-turn for Trump, whose initial sweeping tariffs triggered panic selling across equities, commodities, and crypto markets.
The original policy, announced April 2, had proposed increased duties on all imports from U.S. trading partners, drawing criticism from global leaders and prominent U.S. Billionaire investors including Blackrock CEO, Larry Fink, and Jamie Damon, while Elon Musk also posted a Milton Freidman video from the 1970, criticising trade tariffs as an act of war, rather than a policy that stimultates long-term growth.
Coingecko crypto markets grew 5.5% within hours of Trump’s reversal of the sweeping tariffs. Based on early market signals, the move is seen by analysts as an attempt to restore market confidence while preserving Trump’s tough-on-China stance. With Asian trading still currently closed, more capital inflows could enter the crypto markets as the tariff relief incentivizes investors to re-allocate capital towards risk assets including crypto.
Here’s how BTC, XRP and ETH prices could potentially move in the coming trading sessions.
Ethereum Price Forecast: ETH Eyes $1,800 Rebound After Sharp Bounce From Oversold Zone
Ethereum (ETH) rebounded forcefully from a multi-week low, surging 11.23% on high volume to close at $1,638.
The bullish candle pierced back inside the Keltner Channel, with price reclaiming the lower band at $1,499—often seen as a mean reversion signal. This recovery comes after ETH printed three consecutive red candles below the channel, historically an oversold trigger zone that sets up for relief rallies.
Volume surged during the bounce, validating real demand and adding credibility to the reversal attempt.
The Detrended Price Oscillator (DPO) has begun turning higher from deeply negative territory at -315.98, further reinforcing the view that the recent downtrend is losing steam. The DPO is a lag-free momentum filter, and its reversal near extremes supports the idea of a short-term trend shift.
The Ethereum price forecast now targets $1,800 as the next technical ceiling, which coincides with the midline of the Keltner Channel. However, traders should remain cautious of early profit-taking.
If ETH stalls near $1,680, a reversal back to $1,500 remains on the table. This zone also marks a psychological pivot and previously established demand cluster, confirmed by the sharp bounce on heavy volume—a failure here reintroduces bearish risk.
Ripple Price Prediction: XRP eyes $0.84 as bulls reclaim critical support
XRP’s recent breakout above $2.04 marks a notable shift in short-term sentiment, supported by a high-volume bullish engulfing candle.
As seen below, XRP price has broken above the VWAP at $1.95, a key level often used by institutional traders to gauge fair value. This further strengthens the bullish thesis as XRP recovers from an extended corrective phase.
The Donchian Channel midline at $2.05 aligns with immediate resistance; a clean break above could confirm upside continuation.
From a technical standpoint, the price rebounded decisively off the lower Donchian Band at $1.61. This sharp reaction reflects a potential exhaustion of selling pressure and likely the beginning of a volatility expansion phase. The BBP (Bollinger Band Percent B) remains in deeply negative territory at -0.31, suggesting XRP has significant room to the upside before hitting overbought conditions.
Historically, bounces from sub-0 BBP have preceded impulsive bullish runs.
The Ripple price forecast now leans bullish in the near term, contingent on clearing $2.05 resistance. However, a caveat remains: early profit-taking poses heightened reversal risk from the $2.05 zone.
A retrace toward $1.61, the recent Donchian low, remains plausible if volume fades and momentum stalls. Still, technical structure now favors bulls, with a close above $2.10 potentially triggering an extended move to $2.50.
Bitcoin Price Forecast: BTC Aims for $84,000 as Bulls Seize Control from Key Reversal Zone
Bitcoin price forecast signals now lean bullish after surging nearly 8% to reclaim $82,240, posting its strongest daily close since late March. The sharp bounce from $74,000—just above the lower Bollinger Band—reflects technical resilience near a psychologically pivotal level. That bottom aligns with the lower deviation of volatility bands, where institutional bids often accumulate ahead of major reversals. The rebound was supported by elevated volume, suggesting conviction behind the move rather than passive mean reversion.
More so, the MACD line is curling toward the signal line at -1,433, hinting at a potential bullish cross if price sustains above $80,000. This lends credibility to a Bitcoin price forecast of $84,000 in the near term, which also coincides with the midline of the Bollinger Bands and prior breakdown zone.
While the bias leans bullish, the early gains face resistance. Profit-taking may trigger a pullback if BTC stalls near $83,500. The $77,600 level—validated by price clustering and proximity to the lower Bollinger Band—acts as critical psychological support. A breakdown below that risks renewed bearish pressure and MACD divergence breakdown, reintroducing downside risks swiftly.
