Forbes: Wall Street prepares for a big Bitcoin rally

According to Forbes, Bitcoin prices have rebounded to around $95,000 after falling to an April low of $75,000. Trump’s crypto chief David Sacks surprised traders with a rare Bitcoin price prediction. Now, as Bitcoin rushes towards what BlackRock calls the “geopolitical fragmentation super force,” a leak shows that Wall Street firms are quietly betting on a Trump-driven Bitcoin price rally.

A trading group at Tower Research Capital has “increased capital allocations to crypto trading books” and upgraded its crypto market-making infrastructure, sources said. Wall Street is quietly increasing its support for Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies as the Trump administration stakes to open up Bitcoin trading and crypto market access, remove Biden-era restrictions, and accelerate legislation that will reshape the financial system.

Opinion: Bitcoin’s short-term upward momentum may be weakening

A recent analysis report indicated that over the past month, Bitcoin has risen by 25% driven by continued inflows of ETF funds and institutional spot buying. However, some emerging signals - such as the decline in exchange premiums and weak funding rates - indicate that the momentum of this wave of increases may be weakening. While options skews suggest Bitcoin still has some upside potential, macro pressures are building: the Fed remains neutral (with an upcoming meeting), volatility is slowly picking up, and tariff-related uncertainty remains. The market is currently showing signs of potential consolidation around $95,000, with traders awaiting new catalysts.

Macro News: Tariff concerns rekindled, US stocks fell for two consecutive days

Market concerns about tariffs have rekindled. President Trump and Treasury Secretary Bensont have delivered speeches on trade protocols, which failed to provide a clear direction for the market, and investor sentiment has become cautious. U.S. stocks fell for the second consecutive trading day on Tuesday. As of the close of the day, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.95%; the S&P 500 fell 0.77%; and the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.87% to 17,689.66 points.

The Federal Reserve began a two-day policy meeting on Tuesday. Several officials have previously said that they will closely monitor the lagged impact of tariffs on economic data before deciding on the policy path. Several officials, including Chairman Powell, have emphasized that the Fed will remain “patient.” The market generally expects that the interest rate will remain unchanged at this meeting. According to data from the London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG), investors are currently betting that the probability of a rate cut of at least 25 basis points at the July meeting is close to 80%.
