Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies traded higher on Monday morning, recovering from recent volatility triggered by geopolitical tensions. The overall crypto market capitalisation rose by 0.87% to $3.31 trillion, according to CoinMarketCap.

“Bitcoin is trading above $105,800, eyeing a breakout past the $106,000 resistance,” said Edul Patel, Co-founder and CEO of Mudrex. “Investor confidence increased with strong institutional inflows through ETFs and Michael Saylor hinting at another Bitcoin purchase despite geopolitical concerns.”

On-chain data reflected stable exchange netflows, indicating strong investor sentiment and no immediate intent to sell. Patel added that if BTC sustains above $106,000, a move toward $108,500 is likely, with support at $103,500.

Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder and CEO of Pi42, noted that the market is showing resilience. “Bitcoin is holding its ground above $105,000, even as global uncertainty lingers. Despite the recent shakeout that led to over $1.16 billion in liquidations, sentiment is recovering,” he said, pointing to technical signals like the golden cross and growing altcoin activity.
