The new U.S. President Donald Trump has gifted the cryptocurrency markets a tumultuous first quarter. His insistence on tariffs and rigid stance has created global uncertainty, adversely impacting Bitcoin 
$85,196 and technology stocks. As this article is prepared, Trump’s statements continue to unfold.
U.S. Tariffs and Cryptocurrencies
Trump announced a 25% tariff on automobiles produced outside the U.S. European Union officials are expecting a 20% tariff on April 2, leading to investor anxiety as the significant day approaches. Cryptocurrency and technology stocks are facing a substantial decline in demand due to global liquidity shortages and fear-induced selling.
At the time of writing, the BTC price remains relatively strong, hovering around the $87,000 mark. Key takeaways from Trump’s announcements include:
“Automobile tariffs will be 25%. These tariffs are permanent. Tariffs will apply to all countries. Lumber tariffs are coming. Collections will start on April 3. Automobile tariffs will go into effect on April 2.
Coal areas will be opened; wind energy is not preferred. Tariffs will be imposed on drugs. It will be very fair, nice surprises await on April 2.”
“I might offer tariff reductions for China.”
Even though signs of easing are present, Trump maintains an elevated tone. He also suggests that he might leverage the TikTok deal to impose reductions on China. Until next Thursday, the markets are likely to experience significant fluctuations.
