President Donald Trump announced new tariff rates, creating uncertainty in markets. While a 10% general tariff will apply to all countries, additional tariffs ranging from 20% to 34% will target specific nations, impacting cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. The unexpected higher rates left many countries reeling, with the highest rate reaching 50%. This move triggered fluctuations in cryptocurrency values, with Bitcoin falling from over $88,000 to $84,000, and Ether dropping from nearly $2,000 to around $1,800.
