Bitcoin's value dipped to just over $81,500 in the Asian morning hours on March 31, 2025, as major cryptocurrencies like XRP and Cardano's ADA fell significantly. This decline occurred alongside a broader decrease in stock markets, marking the fourth consecutive day of losses, influenced by the anticipated announcement of new tariffs by President Donald Trump on April 2. Traders are adopting cautious strategies amid fears of a looming global trade war, prompting a surge in safe-haven assets like gold to an all-time high and a drop in U.S. Treasury yields. XRP and ADA experienced a 5% decline in the last 24 hours, while other cryptocurrencies including Solana, dogecoin, and ether saw reductions between 2-3%. The global economic landscape remains uncertain as portfolio managers reconsider their investment strategies ahead of the tariffs, raising concerns over potential economic repercussions.
