Why Bitcoin has recently dropped - My understandings and opinion

Tariff threats from Donald Trump: Bitcoin fell by 2.5% after Trump announced potential tariffs of 25% on iPhones made outside the U.S. and 50% on European products. Investors fear escalating trade tensions

China’s retaliation: In response to new U.S. tariffs, China imposed 34% surtaxes. This increased market uncertainty and may push Bitcoin below $75,000

Federal Reserve policy: The Fed announced it would cut rates fewer times than expected in 2025, strengthening the U.S. dollar and reducing investor appetite for riskier assets like Bitcoin

Profit-taking: After reaching an all-time high of over $111,000 recently, some investors began selling their positions, contributing to the decline

Increased volatility:

Massive liquidations in futures markets accelerated the drop, with nearly $1.37 billion liquidated in 24 hours—including $474 million in Bitcoin positions

Despite recent drops, we can remain optimistic and foresee Bitcoin possibly reaching $by end of 2025, supported by strong technical indicators
