Despite this somewhat bullish move, bearish market conditions still persist.<\/p>\n<p>According to a weekly <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoquant.com\/insights\/research\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">report<\/a> from the market analytics platform CryptoQuant, bitcoin (BTC) has been in one of its least bullish phases since November 2022. The asset\u2019s on-chain metrics signal that a sustained rally in the near term is unlikely.<\/p>\n<h2>BTC Rallies on Paused Tariffs<\/h2>\n<p>The week began with high volatility that triggered a sell-off that dragged bitcoin\u2019s price from $84,000 to a five-month low of $74,000. Ether (ETH) also fell to its March 2023 low of $1,385 as China and the European Union imposed retaliatory tariffs against the United States.<\/p>\n<p>By the middle of the week, U.S. President Donald Trump announced a 90-day pause on tariffs for all countries except China. During these three months, China will be subject to 125% tariffs while 10% will be imposed on other countries. The development triggered a rally among crypto assets, with BTC rebounding after touching its 365-day moving average; CryptoQuant said this level has acted as support in current and previous market cycles.<\/p>\n<p>While BTC currently trades at $83,460, CryptoQuant believes it has found support at its 365-day moving average of $76,100. A sustained plunge below this level would signal the onset of a bear market.<\/p>\n<h2>Market Still in Bearish Condition<\/h2>\n<p>Although market sentiment improved after Trump paused the tariffs, it is worth noting that BTC has recorded its largest drawdown of this cycle \u2013 a 27% correction. Data from CryptoQuant\u2019s Bull Score Index shows the cryptocurrency is still in one of its least bullish phases in over two years.<\/p>\n<p>As<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoins-bull-cycle-over-this-critical-metric-says-it-might-be\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"> reported<\/a> earlier by <em>CryptoPotato<\/em>, the Bull Score Index assesses bitcoin\u2019s investment environment by evaluating nine on-chain indicators and one market metric. The model measures the conditions of the metrics from 0 to 100, with the former being bearish and the latter being bullish.<\/p>\n<p>The index has now fallen to 10 after hovering around 20 since mid-March; a continued stay below 40 indicates weak investor sentiment and the beginning of a bear market. Besides that, only one metric is flashing bullish signals in the metric, which is the price of BTC hovering above its 365-day moving average. The remaining nine have mostly been bearish since February 23, when BTC was still changing hands at $96,000.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, analysts have marked the $84,000 and $96,000 levels as resistance zones if BTC continues its ascent in the coming days.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/us-tariff-pause-sparks-crypto-rally-but-bullish-momentum-remains-weak\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">US Tariff Pause Sparks Crypto Rally, But Bullish Momentum Remains Weak<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the end of this past week, the prices of cryptocurrencies witnessed a significant rally, which was largely attributed to eased trade tensions due to a tariff pause.
