Reports reveal that following US President Donald Trump\u2019s urgent call for an aggressive rate cut, the price of BTC and ETH, as well as several other cryptocurrencies and stocks, skyrocketed.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Bitcoin Hits New ATH After Trump\u2019s Rate Cut Call<\/h2>\n<p>On June 9, Trump took to Truth Social to <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/@realDonaldTrump\/posts\/114823635614745836\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">call<\/a> for a significant cut to the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/fed-rate-cuts-not-imminent-bitcoin-faithful-hold-on\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">Federal Reserve (FED) Interest rate<\/a>. Considering the current economic and political situation in the United States, this announcement immediately sparked bullish sentiment and momentum across the financial sectors.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Within minutes of Trump\u2019s post, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/breaking-news-ticker\/bitcoin-hits-ath-of-112000-expert-predicts-rally-is-just-beginning\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Bitcoin surged past the $112,000 mark<\/a>, setting a new all-time high and breaking its previous record of over $111,000. Notably, Bitcoin\u2019s price <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/bitcoinmagazine\/status\/1943036341517721969?s=46\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">jumped<\/a> dramatically to this high after hovering just below the $110,000 region. This shows just how much impact macroeconomic and political changes can have on the crypto market.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The sudden shift in sentiment also marked a significant change in BTC\u2019s market dynamics, breaking long weeks of price <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-consolidates-in-tight-range-breakout-or-breakdown-next\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">compression and sideways movement<\/a> that had limited its upside potential. Notably, Trump\u2019s unexpected statement acted as a jolt to breaking market inertia, as most cryptocurrencies, in addition to Bitcoin, had been experiencing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/altcoin-market-decline-reaches-final-act-bottom-expected-in-2025-analyst\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">significant downward pressure<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In his post, the US President strongly emphasized the negative financial impacts of the country\u2019s currently elevated interest rates, stating that they were already \u201cat least 3 points too high.\u201d While his rate reduction call is not an official policy move, Trump\u2019s current influence over crypto market sentiment has been growing strong since his election and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/bitcoin-news\/market-reacts-to-trumps-crypto-support-almost-10-billion-invested-in-us-bitcoin-etfs\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">public support of digital assets<\/a>. As a result, many traders or investors may have interpreted his post as a foreshadowing of future <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-rally-expected-in-q4-as-global-central-banks-ease-their-policies\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">monetary easing<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>According to CoinMarketCap, the Bitcoin price has retraced slightly from its ATH level of $112,000 to around $111,173, reflecting a modest 2.21% increase in the past 24 hours. This recent surge has also extended toward lower-cap cryptocurrencies like Ethereum, Cardano, XRP, which have gained between 4% and 6%.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Ethereum Follows Bitcoin\u2019s Lead In Gains<\/h2>\n<p>Tracing Bitcoin\u2019s path, Ethereum has also <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ashcryptoreal\/status\/1943206244359245986?s=46\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">experienced<\/a> a notable rally following Trump\u2019s rate cut call. The top altcoin surged by about 5% to $2,746\u2014the highest level reached in nearly a month. Although the gains were partly due to the sentiment flip from Bitcoin\u2019s upward momentum, ETH benefited significantly from its own <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/crypto-inflows-18b-is-ethereum-outshining-bitcoin\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">investor inflows<\/a> as traders looked to capitalize on the growing market strength.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In recent weeks, Ethereum <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ethereum-crashes-to-4-year-low-against-bitcoin-whats-next-for-eth\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">lagged in both performance and price<\/a> behind Bitcoin. The cryptocurrency had been caught in a prolonged consolidation phase and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/ethereum\/ethereum-30-crash-to-1800\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">price decline<\/a>. However, the recent rally, however small, now indicates that confidence may be returning to altcoins. At the time of writing, Ethereum continues its upward momentum, trading at $2,792 with a 6.43% gain in the past day.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/pkYTRnpj\/\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"2108\" height=\"1502\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The cryptocurrency market has witnessed a sharp rally, led by Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), after a surprising macroeconomic catalyst.
