Research shows that BTC, ETH, and BNB may plummet before Saturday, mainly influenced by U.S. tariff policies and concerns over the global trade war.
Tariffs could increase market uncertainty, weaken investor confidence, and cryptocurrencies as high-risk assets may be the first to suffer.
Current prices have shown volatility, and if there are more economic data or policy changes in the coming days, the decline may intensify.
Background
As of April 16, 2025, the tariff policy announced by U.S. President Trump on April 2 has triggered market turmoil. These tariffs include a 10% baseline tariff on all countries and higher tariffs on countries with significant trade deficits, which took effect on April 5 and April 9, respectively (Reuters: US starts collecting Trump's 10% tariff). This move has raised concerns over a global trade war, which could pose a threat to economic stability.
Impact
The cryptocurrency market is sensitive to macroeconomic factors, especially BTC, ETH, and BNB. On April 7, Bitcoin fell to a new low in 2025, with a decline of 5.5%, while related stocks like MicroStrategy and Coinbase also saw significant drops (Reuters: US crypto stocks slip as bitcoin hits new 2025 low). If tariff policies escalate further or economic data (like unemployment rates) worsen in the coming days, the market may remain under pressure.
Outlook
The current Bitcoin price is approximately $83,864, below its historical peak, indicating market caution (Yahoo Finance: Bitcoin USD (BTC-USD) Historical Prices). If trade tensions escalate, BTC, ETH, and BNB may further decline before Saturday, but specific trends will need to be monitored for the latest policy developments.
Impact in the coming days
In the coming days, if there are more tariff-related news or economic data releases (like potential economic reports on April 17 or 18), it could further heighten market volatility. Research shows that cryptocurrency prices are highly correlated with traditional financial markets, especially in times of economic uncertainty (CoinCodex: Bitcoin Price Prediction). If trade tensions escalate, BTC, ETH, and BNB may face additional selling pressure, especially on the eve of Friday or Saturday. #美国加关税
