The long-term outlook for Bitcoin may strengthen if the US-China trade deal eases macro tensions and restores market confidence.
Currents of market observed that bitcoin slid again on Sunday as roughly $1 billion in BTC moved onto exchanges over the last few days, a classic warning sign that sellers may be preparing to cash out, one likely driver of the renewed drop. Next, as shown by a Crypto News Flash (CNF) report, remains mixed. Despite Bitcoin breaking below $100K, CNF noted that BTC’s structure and sentiment setup still lean bullish.
However, this pattern also give hints that some investors are ready to take profits, and it may be a key reason behind the ongoing downtrend. As noted by a Market Analyst commenting on the bullish macro implications amid the dip:
Crypto investors are viewing the US-China trade deal as a net positive for Bitcoin, as easing tariffs improve risk sentiment, stabilize liquidity, and reduce dollar volatility — potentially driving speculative flows back into BTC once the current fear subsides.

On the other hand, when so much BTC is transferred to exchanges, it usually signals that big holders (whales) are preparing to sell.
Until now, the Bitcoin pullback is already weighing on the broader market, and XRP is feeling it sharply. XRP has dropped below $2.45, and analysts noted that its also correlation with BTC remains above 0.8, meaning it tends to mirror Bitcoin almost point-for-point.

Even so, the long-term narrative may shift. U.S. Treasury officials said a US-China trade deal could be finalized before Thanksgiving, and this has been interpreted as of potential tailwind for assets linked to global payments. Ripple’s ODL network — which processed $30B in volume during 2025 — stands to benefit if tariffs fall and remittance channels become more efficient.
Historical patterns suggest that easing geopolitical tensions often reduces dollar volatility, and some analysts believe this environment could help altcoins recover. CoinDCX forecasts that if BTC stabilizes and ETF demand picks up.
