Major altcoins moved higher on Tuesday, March 10, 2026, as broader risk sentiment improved following comments from President Donald Trump indicating the U.S. campaign in Iran may be nearing completion. The bounce came alongside a pullback in oil prices and a rebound in Asian equities, though officials in Iran issued defiant statements, underscoring ongoing uncertainty around any near-term resolution.
In crypto markets, Ether, Solana, and XRP climbed as traders reacted to the shift in headlines. CoinDesk cited Nansen analysts as saying that markets had largely “priced in” the worst-case outcomes and were responding primarily to incremental news flow rather than to a deterioration in broader macro conditions.
Flows remained supportive even amid the volatility. CoinShares reported $619 million in net inflows into digital asset investment products last week, with Bitcoin products accounting for $521 million, while Ethereum and Solana also recorded inflows. It noted that the U.S. accounted for most of the net buying.
