Asia-Pacific markets mostly rose Tuesday, after Wall Street fell as crypto sell-off dented market sentiment.
Overnight, bitcoin plunged around 6% to trade below $86,000, marking its worst day since March and pressuring the broader stock market down. The digital currency has struggled to stay above $90,000 since it fell below that level late last month for the first time since April. Other crypto-related stocks, including Coinbase and Strategy , also fell in Monday's session.
Shares of artificial intelligence-related names, Broadcom and Super Micro Computer lost more than 4% and 1%, respectively, indicating more profit-taking in the sector.
Japan's benchmark Nikkei 225 index added 0.54% at the open, and the Topix index was up 0.44%.
