#TrumpTariffs

Trump's tariffs, as implemented in 2025 (for example, 25% for Canada and Mexico, 10-50% for China), triggered short-term volatility in the crypto market, including Bitcoin, due to economic uncertainty and risk-off sentiment. The price of BTC temporarily dropped from $110,000 to $74,500-$83,000 due to inflation concerns and potential recession. However, a tariff pause (for example, a 90-day delay) triggered a price recovery, with BTC rebounding to ~$83,000. In the long term, tariffs may weaken the dominance of the US dollar, enhancing the appeal of BTC as "digital gold" and a hedge against economic instability. Nevertheless, the increase in mining equipment costs due to import tariffs may pressure miners' profitability. Investors are advised to remain flexible, monitor macro policies, and consider long-term strategies such as holding BTC.
