Market turbulence driven by U.S. trade decisions and Trump family activity shows how tightly crypto is linked to politics.
The digital asset market experienced a significant correction in response to President Donald Trump’s announcement of plans to impose import tariffs on goods from Mexico, China, and Canada. Bitcoin declined below USD 95,000, while Ethereum tested levels around USD 2,000.
Despite a swift retraction of the initial statements—likely signaling the start of trade negotiations—the announcement triggered notable market volatility. The correlation with traditional equity markets underscored the growing integration of cryptocurrencies into the global financial system.
Currently, we are observing a gradual stabilization and recovery in asset valuations.
