Massive Market Crash, Then Partial Rebound
The crypto market saw a historic wipeout, losing ~$19 billion in a short span.
The crash was largely driven by a leverage unwind—builders of leveraged positions were liquidated en masse.
After the drop, the market staged a rebound. Bitcoin rose ~3–5%, Ethereum rallied ~9–11%, and altcoins followed strong gains.
Geopolitics & Policy Moves as Catalysts
A key trigger was U.S. President Trump’s announcement of 100% tariffs on Chinese tech goods and new export restrictions, which rattled risk assets including crypto.
Some analysts believe the crash “felt different,” pointing to possible involvement of whales or market makers exacerbating the fall.
Institutional & Regulatory Developments
Global crypto ETFs drew record inflows (~$5.95 billion) in early October, signaling growing institutional appetite.
S&P launched a new index, Digital Markets 50, which blends cryptocurrencies and crypto-related stocks for diversified exposure.
In Kenya, parliament passed a law to regulate virtual assets, assigning licensing authority to the Central Bank and oversight of exchanges to the Capital Markets Authority.
In the UK, despite regulatory easing, top investment platform Hargreaves Lansdown warned investors that Bitcoin has “no intrinsic value,” signaling cautious sentiment.
Altcoin Moves & Top Performers
Some altcoins had spectacular moves: e.g., COAI surged ~1,757% over a week.
Privacy and anonymity coins like ZEN and ZEC also posted strong weekly gains (~60%+).
📌 What to Watch / Outlook
Leverage & Liquidation Risk
The recent crash showed how fragile markets can be when leverage is high. Future outsized moves may still come from liquidations or thin liquidity.
China–U.S. Relations & Trade Policy
Geopolitical tensions remain a major swing factor. Any escalation or de-escalation in tariffs, export rules, or tech bans will likely ripple into crypto markets.
Presently Bitcoin and Entherm are at top.
