- The global crypto market cap has shed 2.24%.
The US Dollar has plunged, and stocks have declined, with all attention now diverted to the Greenland meeting. The global crypto market has felt this pinch, evident from some of the top tokens losing their value significantly. Meanwhile, investors continue to seek a safety net in Gold and Silver.
Stocks and US Dollar
Stocks have plummeted, possibly reacting to Trump’s tariff announcement on EU nations. Nasdaq and S&P 500 have slipped by more than 1%. European futures have lost 0.27% while STOXX 600 is down by 1.2%. Japan’s Yen was last seen at 158.08 against the dollar.
The jolt of international uncertainty has hit American currency as well. The dollar index is $98.912, 0.18% lower, while the Swiss franc rose by 0.7% to a one-week high of 0.7956. As of now, per a report by Reuters, conversations around Sell America trade are gaining traction. This is a situation where investors look to sell the dollar, treasury bonds, and stocks.
Global Crypto Market Testing Key Resistance
The global crypto market cap is inching closer to the $3 trillion mark with the recent decline of 2.24%. The FGI has shifted to 42 points, and the Altcoin Index has slipped to 26 points. Top tokens like BTC and ETH are testing critical resistance levels after dropping 2.04% and 3.52% of their respective values in the last 24 hours.
BTC is trading at $91,102.11, while constantly testing the resistance at around $90k. ETH is exchanging hands at $3,097.86 with resistance pinned at approximately $3k. Other cryptocurrency market giants that have lost their momentum in the last 24 hours are BNB (-1.68%), XRP (-2.67%), and SOL (-3.56%), to mention a few.
Attention on Davos
International trade uncertainty, which acted as one of the major factors to trigger the ongoing turbulence in the crypto market, is rooted in, to some extent, Trump’s intention of taking over Greenland. A meeting is scheduled to happen in Davos, wherein it is anticipated that leaders will reach a consensus.
US President Donald Trump has already announced 2-phased tariffs. These are 10% & 25%, on EU nations. The former is tentatively scheduled to be effective on February 01, 2026, while the higher rate could go live on June 01, 2026.
Additionally, he has threatened to book a tariff rate of up to 200% on French wines and champagne with an aim to persuade French President Macron to join the Board of Peace.

Ethereum network activity reaches a record high, but ETH prices have not risen accordingly, and on-chain transaction fee revenue has not significantly increased. Transaction data shows that the correlation between on-chain activity and price has weakened, with new demand not translating into higher ETH valuation, leading to net capital outflows from the market. Stablecoins still dominate the Ethereum ecosystem, but overall economic activity is dispersed across layer 2 networks, indicating a separation between network usage and asset value capture.
