Recently, Bitcoin has experienced significant fluctuations due to global trade tensions and economic policies. On April 7, 2025, the price of Bitcoin dropped by as much as 5.5%, reaching its lowest point since the beginning of the year, at around $76,500.
This decline was influenced by the announcement of new tariffs by US President Donald Trump, which raised concerns among investors and led to a downturn in stock and digital currency markets. Additionally, shares of companies related to digital currencies, such as "MicroStrategy" and "Coinbase," fell by rates ranging between 6% and 7%.
In a related context, "MicroStrategy" announced unrealized losses of $5.91 billion in the first quarter of 2025 due to the decline in Bitcoin value. Nevertheless, the company continued to increase its Bitcoin holdings, purchasing an additional 22,048 coins between March 24 and March 30, bringing its total holdings to 528,185 Bitcoins.
Despite these challenges, some analysts predict that the price of Bitcoin will reach $200,000 by the end of 2025, citing an increase in institutional investment flows and the growing adoption of digital currency.
Additionally, US President Donald Trump signed an executive order on March 6, 2025, to create a "Strategic Bitcoin Reserve" aimed at enhancing the United States' position in the digital currency market.
The Bitcoin and digital currency market remains volatile and is affected by global economic and political factors, requiring investors to stay updated on developments and make informed decisions.
