Ontology (ONT) is up by 10.3% this week to $0.1325, significantly outperforming the broader crypto market, where Bitcoin (BTC) is adding 3.3% to $81,800. Despite the absence of any project-specific catalysts for ONT, the token’s price has surged in tandem with a general rebound in risk assets.

The rally was largely driven by macroeconomic relief after U.S. President Donald Trump announced a 90-day pause in the tariff escalation — excluding China — temporarily easing fears of a full-blown global trade war. This shift halted the broader crypto market sell-off and allowed assets like ONT to regain lost ground.

Bitcoin is currently facing stiff resistance in the $80,000–$82,000 range. A successful breakout from this level would likely fuel additional upside for altcoins, including ONT. From a technical perspective, ONT has room to climb toward $0.1500 in the short term, with $0.2000 as a more ambitious target if bullish momentum continues.
