The recent tariff threats introduced over the weekend and the looming possibility of a U.S. government shutdown have added stress to the Bitcoin market, driving prices down to a five-week low of $86,000.

However, while most altcoins have faced declines, RIVER has made headlines with a remarkable rise, increasing by 40% daily.

Bitcoin’s Fluctuating Journey

A week ago, Bitcoin experienced a significant correction, plunging from over $95,500 to $92,000 within a few hours after the opening of traditional financial markets. Subsequently, it dropped further to $87,000 midweek.

The situation saw a brief recovery after Trump eased concerns about potential conflict regarding Greenland, causing a rise back towards $91,000, though it quickly fell beneath $90,000 again as bears remained prevalent during the quiet weekend.

On Saturday, Trump issued a warning of 100% tariffs on Canada if a comprehensive trade agreement with China was finalized, further destabilizing the market. Reports suggesting the possible closure of the U.S. government added to market apprehensions.

As a result, Bitcoin tumbled dramatically, reaching its lowest point since December at $86,000 before recovering slightly to around $88,000. Its market capitalization now stands at $1.750 trillion, maintaining a stable dominance rate of 57.5% over its altcoin counterparts.

RIVER Shows Resilience

In stark contrast, RIVER has demonstrated extraordinary strength. Over the last month, its price increased by a staggering 2,100%, currently trading at $84 with a market cap exceeding $1.6 billion.

While total cryptocurrency valuations fell to $3.050 trillion after a $30 billion drop, RIVER’s performance highlights striking market dynamics.
