Bitcoin ( BTCUSD ) held steady around $94,000 early Monday, wrapping up a strong April rally that’s set to deliver a 13% monthly gain. The turnaround follows a tough first quarter that saw Bitcoin tumble 25% from peak to trough, shaking investor confidence.

April’s rebound marks Bitcoin’s best month so far this year and puts the second quarter on stronger footing. The rally has been fueled by a return of risk appetite, a weaker US dollar, easing tariff fears, and renewed speculation that crypto could thrive under shifting political and economic conditions.

Despite a noisy backdrop of Fed uncertainty and tariff headlines, Bitcoin maintained upward momentum, with steady demand from institutional and retail buyers. Technically, $94,000 is now a battleground, with a push past $95,000 opening the door toward the $98,000–$100,000 range.

Meanwhile, Ethereum ( ETHUSD ) struggled. Ether hit a two-year low of $1,383 in April before recovering slightly to around $1,790 but is still on pace for a fifth straight monthly loss, down about 1% for the month and erasing 56% of its value over the past five months.
