Impacts on the California Budget
Trump's tariffs announced in April resulted in a $16.1 billion drop in tax revenues for the state of California. This has led to cuts in the state's budget and economic uncertainty.
Bitcoin's Performance in the Crypto Market
While traditional financial markets have fallen due to Trump's tariff policies, crypto assets such as Bitcoin have performed more steadily. This shows that investors are turning to alternative assets.
Trump's new tariff policies have a direct impact not only on trade balances but also on crypto markets, inflation and global capital flows. Bitcoin and altcoins in particular are on the radar of investors looking for a safe haven from traditional markets.
