Crypto rebounds as China and US relations improve – Rumor has it Barron Trump caused flashcrash

Last Updated on 14 October 2025 by CryptoTips.eu

After President Donald Trump threatened a new trade war on Friday, je immediately drove down the prices of stocks and cryptocurrencies. Over the weekend, a new opening between the Chinese and US governments was noticeable. Cryptocurrencies reacted very positively, trading sharply higher on Monday.

Bitcoin is now trading at $111,900 again after experiencing a flash crash on Friday.

Rebound

On Saturday evening, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce announced that the restrictions on rare earth metal exports would not become a total ban after all. Interested parties (particularly Silicon Valley tech companies) would continue to receive permits, the ministry said, adding that these measures would have only a “minimal impact” on global production and the supply chain between China and the US.

In Washington, Vice President Vance responded this weekend that President Trump greatly valued his friendship with Chinese Premier Xi Jinping and was willing to be a reasonable negotiator.

Trump himself then eased the tension on Truth Social by claiming that everything would be fine with China.

The stock markets and cryptocurrencies reacted very positively to all these developments on Monday.

Barron

Meanwhile, a rumor is spreading on social media that Donald Trump’s father, with his Friday post, caused Bitcoin to crash so his son, Barron, could buy Bitcoin for less than $100,000. It sounds highly unlikely, but with the Trumps, you never know.
