Trump’s Tariffs Shake Global Markets and Crypto Sentiment
In the summer of 2025, Trump’s return to protectionist policies is once again shaking global markets. President Donald Trump initiated a wave of new tariffs in April under the so-called "Liberation Day" framework, starting with a 10% baseline and reaching up to 50% on select imports. While initially postponed to July 9, these tariffs are now set to be enforced on August 1 for multiple countries.
Around 12 to 15 nations will face additional 10% tariffs if they are found to support anti-American BRICS policies. This move has stirred geopolitical tension, particularly among countries like China, India, Russia, and Brazil. The crypto market has also responded, with major coins such as BTC and ETH showing increased volatility in the face of global uncertainty.
Analysts on Binance Square suggest the weakening U.S. dollar due to tariffs could push investors toward "digital gold" assets like Bitcoin. However, the broader market remains fragile. Back in April, BTC saw a sharp 15% drop before rebounding to around 109k—highlighting how reactive the market can be.
According to Binance Research, high-risk assets like meme coins have suffered the most amid this turmoil, while Real-World Asset (RWA) tokens have shown more resilience. Investors are advised to use stop-loss tools, remain adaptable, and closely monitor macroeconomic developments.
In summary, Trump’s tariff strategy is not just reshaping global trade, but also influencing the crypto landscape. August could prove pivotal, and investors must be prepared for both risk and opportunity.
