The Bitcoin and Ethereum prices rallied after reports of the US dollar crashing spread across the market. Recent data show that the US dollar has fallen to its lowest level in four years, raising concerns about the strength of the world’s dominant reserve currency. As the dollar weakens, market players are beginning to shift attention to alternative assets such as precious metals and digital currencies, including BTC, which is increasingly viewed as a potential hedge against rising inflation and currency depreciation. US Dollar Falls To Lows Not Seen In 4 Years New reports from Bloomberg highlight the relentless slide in the US dollar index (DXY) over recent weeks, with the price tumbling further after President Donald Trump’s comments on the currency’s performance. Sources reveal that Trump said the dollar is “doing great,” despite its ongoing downturn. Related Reading: Analyst Says Chainlink Price Could Crash 50% If This Level Fails Traders interpreted the President’s seemingly indifferent response to the declining dollar as a signal that the slide could continue, triggering further selling pressure. Data from the web-based stock market research platform Finviz shows that, as of writing, the US dollar index has crashed to 95.92 from a previous level near 100. This marks its weakest level in nearly four years, specifically since 2022. Additionally, Bloomberg reported that its Dollar Spot Index also recorded its lowest four-day decline since Trump announced new tariffs in April 2025. Traders in the $9.5 trillion per-day currency markets are also increasingly betting that the dollar could decline further, as US policy risks weigh on the world’s primary reserve currency. Amidst the decline in the US dollar index, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum are posting gains. BTC’s price rose above $89,000, while Ethereum has climbed more than 3% to reach above $3,000, in the past 24 hours. This simultaneous rally in cryptocurrencies alongside the weakening US dollar suggests that investors may be shifting capital to risk-on assets. Market analyst ‘Master of Crypto’ recently outlined several reasons behind the continued decline in the weakening US dollar in a post on X. He explained that large budget deficits, the FED’s challenge of balancing inflation control with job market stability, steady bond supply, and FX hedging activities are keeping the US dollar near recent lows. According to him, in this type of market environment, holding idle cash becomes a significant risk for investors.

When the dollar declines, investors sometimes seek alternative assets to preserve value. This can increase demand for Bitcoin and Ethereum, which are viewed by many as alternative stores of value and risk-on assets. While this correlation is not a clear indication of a potential cryptocurrency rally, analysts like ‘Milk Road Macro’ suggest that the declining dollar could help support a broader crypto market recovery. He said that as the dollar weakens, capital will flow into precious metals like gold and silver. Soon after, this same capital is expected to rotate into BTC, potentially fueling a price rebound.

XRP may be approaching a pivotal turning point as regulatory uncertainty is moving closer to resolution with the upcoming Clarity Act decision. If the Clarity Act establishes a clearer framework, XRP could unlock fresh capital flows, renewed exchange participation, and broader integration across the financial platforms. This moment could represent the transition from consolidation to a new phase of sustained growth. How Clear Rules Could Reshape XRP Market Perception The passing of the Clarity Art will trigger XRP to go absolutely parabolic. An analyst known as Bird has highlighted on X that the Clarity Art is designed to make the rules of crypto regulation straightforward. It will tell in the market which digital assets will be legally allowed and which are not. As the resolution inches closer, XRP has already been tested in court and was not classified as an illegal security. Related Reading: What Does XRP Really Do? Expert Explains What It Is Built For Thus, when the rules become clear across the entire crypto market, companies, banks, and investors can finally use and hold XRP without worrying about regulatory backlash. These clear rules mean more trust, more capital, and more use for XRP. Bird’s view is that this is exactly why the court case was meant to happen, because it has positioned XRP to front-run every other digital asset. While retail traders are watching the price, banks and institutions are positioning for it. Crypto analyst LukeSuther pointed out that the XRP price action is being deliberately constrained, not out of bad faith, but out of necessity, because participants can’t migrate global settlement infrastructure into a market that’s still fully volatile and speculative. Before true price discovery can happen, regulation, liquidity corridors, compliance frameworks, and integration with legacy financial systems must be in place. However, if XRP were already operating in a completely open, utility-driven market, LukeSuther argues that it wouldn’t be trading at $2.00. Instead, the price will remain compressed while the institutions load and the rails are being built. Why Infrastructure Matters More Than Market Narrative The founder of Lux Lions NFT and host of the Crypto Blitz YouTube show, RipBullWinkle, stated that what started as a digital asset experiment is now evolving into real capital markets infrastructure. Brad Garlinghouse and Tony Edward break down XRP’s institutional adoption trajectory during an X Spaces discussion. Related Reading: XRP Advances As A Recognized Digital Asset In Regulated Markets — Here’s How According to RipBullWinkle, the conversation wasn’t about price targets.

While the market is busy chasing narratives, foundations are being built in public view. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com
