#TrumpTariffs Donald Trump’s tariffs, implemented in 2025, target imports from countries like China, Canada, and Mexico with rates up to 25% and a 10% baseline on most nations. These trade policies have sparked volatility in cryptocurrency markets due to fears of trade wars, inflation, and economic slowdown. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other cryptocurrencies saw sharp declines, with Bitcoin dropping from $105,000 to below $80,000 at times, and altcoins falling up to 20%. Trump’s own meme coin lost 75% of its value. The tariffs disrupt investor confidence, pushing some toward safer assets like gold, as cryptocurrencies correlate with riskier markets like stocks. However, some analysts argue Bitcoin could benefit long-term as a hedge against a weakening U.S. dollar or economic instability, though short-term volatility persists.
