Bitcoin slipped 0.5% to $108,224.20 as President Trump’s new tariff notices and deadline extensions rattled risk appetite. Here’s a mobile‑friendly, data‑driven look at why Bitcoin volatility is resurfacing and how you can stay on top of market moves.
Trump notified 14 countries—including Japan and South Korea—of steep new duties taking effect August 1 (delayed from July 9). With tariffs ranging from 25% up to 40%, global trade uncertainty spiked, weighing on risk assets like Bitcoin and altcoins.
Traders have kept positions small as tariff deadlines and potential extensions loom. When macro policy swings intrude, Bitcoin often mirrors equity risk appetite, leading to choppy price action and heightened Bitcoin volatility.
Starting July 14, U.S. lawmakers will debate the CLARITY Act, Anti‑CBDC Surveillance State Act, and GENIUS Act. Any significant regulatory moves could trigger fresh volatility or set a new direction for digital‑asset markets.
