The crypto market continued to decline on Thursday and today, October 17, following renewed global uncertainty after former U.S. President Donald Trump\u2019s comments about imposing 100% tariffs on Chinese imports. The threat of trade disruption pushed investors toward defensive assets, weighing on both equities and digital currencies. With market sentiment sinking, traders are now questioning whether this correction could present the best crypto to buy opportunity before year-end.<\/p>\n

Gold Extends Record Rally as Investors Shift to Safe-Haven Assets<\/h2>\n

Gold prices continued their record-breaking climb for a fourth consecutive day on Thursday, October 16, as traders moved away from risk assets amid escalating U.S.\u2013China trade tensions and growing fears of a U.S. government shutdown. Spot gold surged 3% to $4,380 per ounce.<\/p>\n\n

(Source: TradingView<\/a>)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gold has now gained more than 60% in 2025, supported by geopolitical uncertainty, expectations of Federal Reserve rate cuts, strong central bank demand, and a continued move toward de-dollarisation. Analysts attribute much of the rally to renewed safe-haven buying, with investors increasingly diversifying away from volatile equities and crypto assets.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Washington\u2019s criticism of China\u2019s rare-earth export restrictions and Trump\u2019s plan for another summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin added to geopolitical uncertainty. The U.S. Federal Reserve is now widely expected to cut rates twice before year-end, with October and December probabilities at 98% and 95%, respectively.<\/p>\n

Reflecting the broad move into precious metals, silver rose 1.8% to US$54.04 per ounce, setting a new record at US$54.15, while platinum advanced 3.2% to US$1,706.65, and palladium jumped 4.6% to US$1,606.00.<\/p>\n

ETF Outflows Raise Caution, Traders Ask: What\u2019s the Best Crypto to Buy Now?<\/h2>\n

On October 16, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs reported $536 million in net outflows, the largest single-day withdrawal since August. None of the twelve funds recorded inflows, while Grayscale\u2019s GBTC and Fidelity\u2019s FBTC led redemptions. Spot Ethereum ETFs saw $56.88 million in outflows, with BlackRock\u2019s ETHA the only one to post a small inflow.<\/p>\n

(Source:\u00a0Coinglass<\/a>)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bitcoin is now testing key support near $104,000, a level that previously triggered $2.1 billion in liquidations. The ongoing correction reflects a combination of trade-related anxiety, institutional withdrawals, and derivatives pressure.<\/p>\n

While sentiment remains weak, analysts are watching whether ETF flows stabilize and if current prices could represent long-term accumulation zones.<\/p>\n

For investors assessing opportunities amid fear, upcoming sessions may help identify the best crypto to buy as market volatility settles.<\/p>\n
