Why is Crypto Up or Down?

Crypto is down (-2.8%) β€” Top: NEAR -6.7%

Crypto markets traded lower on the day (average move -2.77%) as risk appetite softened, with sharper drawdowns in higher-beta large caps like NEAR and SOL suggesting a broad de-risking rather than an idiosyncratic sell-off. Sentiment was further weighed by renewed attention on meme-coin rug pulls tied to Trump-themed tokens, which tends to tighten liquidity and reduce traders’ willingness to hold speculative exposure across the complex. Meanwhile, headlines about sizable Ethereum spot buying and long-dormant Bitcoin moving without immediately hitting exchanges offered some offsetting context, but not enough to counter the broader risk-off tone.
