April 2025 turned out to be a pivotal month for digital assets amid rising institutional investment, evolving regulations, and resilient investor sentiment. April was led by Bitcoin (BTC), which posted a 14% monthly gain, climbing from $82,500 to over $94,000.

The month began with uncertainty driven by global trade and geopolitical tensions, particularly between the US and China. Despite the initial volatility, mid-to-late April marked a strong recovery. It was driven by market optimism following the appointment of a crypto-supportive chair at the US Securities and Exchange Commission.
