Trump Tariff : Mixed News for Crypto Investors

The price of Bitcoin has experienced a sharp drop in recent days, causing concern among investors. However, a glimmer of hope emerged with a US judge’s decision to compel Donald Trump to end his trade war.

Indeed, President Trump had imposed tariffs based on a 1977 economic emergency law. But the judge ruled that there was no acute crisis, as the United States has had a trade deficit with the rest of the world for nearly half a century.

It remains to be seen if Trump will abide by this decision, as he has previously ignored similar judgments. The government has, in fact, appealed this new ruling.

Nevertheless, financial markets do not seem to be taking this judicial decision seriously or believe that Trump will ignore it. As a result, the price of Bitcoin has dropped by several thousand dollars, whereas this news should have actually propelled it upwards.

A Bear Trap or a Fall for Bitcoin?

It is possible that Bitcoin needs to take a breather after its recent surge. Since the April low related to the trade war, the price has indeed increased very rapidly, gaining 27% compared to only 15% for the Nasdaq.

Investors have likely taken their profits from Bitcoin to reinvest them in other assets. However, this does not negate recent positive news, such as massive Bitcoin purchases by some companies, including GameStop.

Despite these fluctuations, the momentum remains generally positive for Bitcoin. But it is crucial to closely monitor the market’s evolution in the coming days.

Bitcoin ETFs, like BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), continue to attract inflows, with 30 consecutive days of accumulation signaling strong institutional interest.

Key technical levels to watch include support at $105,000 and resistance at $110,000, which could signal a recovery if breached.

For interested investors, these fluctuations may present lucrative buying opportunities. Stay informed and be ready to seize the right chances that come your way!
