Bitcoin Surges Above $110,000 as U.S.-China Trade Talks Show Signs of Progress

The price jump comes after U.S. officials, including President Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, offered encouraging—if vague—updates on the first round of talks held in London.

Trade Talks Renew Risk Appetite

Following six hours of closed-door discussions on Monday, the U.S. and China resumed negotiations Tuesday, focusing heavily on rare earth mineral exports and technology trade restrictions. The stakes are high, with both countries maneuvering to secure leverage over critical materials and export policies.

Trump struck a cautiously upbeat tone, telling reporters he received “good reports” from the negotiating team, but added that “China’s not easy.” Bessent echoed the sentiment, calling it a “good meeting,” while Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick described the talks as “fruitful.” Though no formal agreements have been reached, the remarks appear to have boosted risk-on sentiment in crypto markets.

The bullish breakout could pave the way for a test of the next psychological milestone at $110,000, especially if macroeconomic tailwinds continue.
