Why is Crypto Up or Down?

Crypto is up (+1.3%) — Top: ETH +5.7%

Crypto markets traded higher overall (average +1.26%), led by large-cap strength in Ethereum, as investors leaned into the “risk-on” side of the tape following a fresh wave of AI-focused headlines that reinforced the sector’s longer-running narrative around on-chain compute, data, and tokenized infrastructure. At the same time, reports that perpetual DEX Ostium paused trading after an oracle exploit injected a note of caution into DeFi, but the contained, protocol-specific nature of the incident helped keep the broader bid intact while higher-beta names like NEAR outperformed on sentiment rather than any single catalyst.
