4 Forward-Looking Ideas to Profit Past the Tariff Pause
![]() |
By Beth Canova |
This week, it wasn’t just crypto that saw incredible volatility. Stocks saw the continuation of last week’s tense sell-off, sparked by President Trump’s latest tariff announcement.
The announcement of a 90-day pause this week ignited explosive, across-the-board rallies in world markets. Bitcoin (BTC, “A-”) shot up above $83,000. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 jumped 9.3% and the Nasdaq, 12.3%.
But more volatility is expected once the tariff talks continue in the near future.
That’s why Juan Villaverde sent Your Post-Tariff Pause Crypto Outlook on Friday.
In his update, he breaks down the broad macroeconomic outlook … and how it fits within his cycles analysis.
With that roadmap to the markets in hand, I encourage you to check out the remaining Weiss Crypto Daily updates for this week.
Your team of crypto experts has found a few promising projects in this tough market that are worth your attention.
The Great Liberation of Wealth Reveals BTC’s Strength
Monday was the hardest day for crypto trading. The broad market shed over 10% of its total market cap before bouncing and regaining some losses. But that’s only half the story, as Marija Matić reveals. A closer look at the BTC shows key signs of strength, especially when it comes to investor sentiment. And that means Bitcoin’s future may be brighter than it first appears.
Follow the Fees to Find DeFi Ideas
Not all opportunities are as obvious as the No. 1 crypto. That’s why in his latest update, Dr. Bruce Ng breaks down one equation you can use to find undervalued DEXs. DEXs tend to rally on any big crypto move, as that means more activity on those platforms. And undervalued exchanges on popular networks stand to outperform in the coming rally. Which is why you’ll want to learn more about the DEX Dr. Bruce believes has the biggest potential to rally in Q2.
Ripple Bets $1.25 Billion on Institutions
Ripple (XRP, “C+”) has been in the headlines a lot since it won its lawsuit against the SEC. Not only has it shucked the stigma of investigation, but it is moving full steam ahead to bring blockchain tech and DeFi services to institutions. And as Mark Gough explains, Ripple’s latest strategic action not only brings it closer to that goal … it may have just secured first-mover advantage, as well.
With how volatile the markets have been, it’s natural you may have missed some of the more boring developments in the market. But one you shouldn’t ignore is the emerging Layer-3 narrative. This latest layer of blockchains is highly customizable and adds a new tier of opportunity to crypto.
Our tech expert Jurica Dujmovic breaks down how L3s work, which narratives stand to benefit the most and which opportunities in this brand-new sector have already caught his eye.
But that’s all for this week. Be sure to check your inbox tomorrow afternoon for your next Weiss Crypto Daily update.
