Why crypto market is surging 

The renewed bullish momentum has emerged as broader risk sentiment improved after U.S. President Donald Trump confirmed a meeting with China’s Xi Jinping later this month, easing fears of a prolonged trade conflict.

This development lifted both global equities and cryptocurrencies, with Bitcoin’s rebound closely mirroring Nasdaq futures. Notably, crypto’s 30-day correlation with the S&P 500 climbed to 0.78, highlighting a tightening link between digital assets and traditional markets.

While reduced geopolitical tensions have fueled short-term optimism, investors are now turning their attention to the upcoming Malaysia trade talks (Oct. 20–22) and U.S. inflation data, which was delayed due to the government shutdown, for clues on whether the rally can maintain its momentum.

Meanwhile, in the coming week, focus will shift toward institutional inflows through exchange-traded funds (ETFs). 

Notably, most Bitcoin funds recorded massive outflows over the past week. If inflows stabilize in the coming days, Bitcoin could gather further momentum and potentially reclaim the $110,000 level.
