Trump’s 25% tariff revives macro fears: What’s at stake for Bitcoin?
Trump's proposed 25% tariff on countries trading with Iran has revived macroeconomic concerns, yet Bitcoin shows initial resilience, closing only 1.2% lower at $92k. While market sentiment has improved and BTC consolidates near $90k with $80k as key support, on-chain data signals caution. Long-term holder behavior aligns with periods of "higher uncertainty," historically seen in early bear markets. Given that China is Iran’s largest trading partner, fears of a U.S.-China trade war escalation persist. A repeat of October’s scenario—where LTH profit-taking led to a 30% BTC drop—can’t be ruled out. With fragile positioning and rising macro risks, the potential for another distribution phase and breakdown remains if FUD intensifies.
