#CryptoTariffDrop The recent decline in cryptocurrency prices is primarily linked to President Trump's newly announced tariffs, which have unsettled global financial markets. Bitcoin saw a sharp 6% drop, briefly touching $82,000, while the overall crypto market declined by approximately 3%, fueled by concerns over a potential global economic slowdown.
There is growing apprehension about a possible U.S. recession, with Deutsche Bank cautioning that these tariffs could shrink the country's GDP by as much as 1.5% this year. This economic uncertainty has weakened investor confidence, contributing to the crypto market's downturn.
