Despite a 1000-point crash on Nasdaq on Thursday, Bitcoin and altcoins are showing some resilience as crypto market investors seem to be looking past the Trump tariff developments. BTC price today is down by just 1% to $82,698 after facing strong volatility earlier this week. Investors will be looking forward to next month’s FOMC meeting and whether Fed Chair Jerome Powell blinks for rate cuts amid the Trump-led market turmoil. Where is Bitcoin Price Heading Next After Trump Tariffs? Bitcoin price has been seeing severe volatility over the past week, oscillating between $82,000-$89,000. Just as the Trump reciprocal tariffs kicked in on April 2, BTC price came crashing down from $88,000 to the lows of $82,000. However, despite Nasdaq falling 6%, and S&P 500 falling 5% on Thursday, BTC and the broader crypto market have shown greater resilience recently. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez has highlighted a key technical milestone for BTC’s potential market rebound. According to Martinez, the first clear signal that Bitcoin is ready to resume its bull run would be reclaiming the short-term holder realized price level, which currently sits at $90,570.

Traders are assigning just a 27.1% probability to a 25 basis point rate cut at the upcoming Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting scheduled for May 7, according to the latest market data. The low odds suggest that investors believe the U.S. Federal Reserve is unlikely to shift from its current monetary policy path. Fed Chair Jerome Powell continues to strike a cautious tone, signaling that more evidence of cooling inflation may be needed before easing begins. Popular crypto analyst Titan of Crypto shows that Bitcoin price needs to break out from the falling wedge pattern. The analyst shared optimism noting: “Over the next couple of months, CPI and Core PCE are likely to improve, as Trueflation data shows inflation cooling off significantly”.

Some market analysts believe that this could be the end to any further correction from here onwards. They also thinks that the bottom is in and altcoins are set for a further rally from here onwards. Crypto analyst Wimar.X has issued a bullish signal for the altcoin market, noting that a key technical crossover has now formed — historically preceding massive rallies. According to Wimar.X, similar signals in past cycles triggered altcoin market surges of 1,000% to 2,000%.
