The European Union's announcement of retaliatory tariffs on $28 billion worth of US goods, set to begin in April, has raised concerns about increased volatility in Bitcoin prices. Analysts predict a potential drop below the critical $75,000 support level due to macroeconomic uncertainties and heightened risk aversion among investors. Nansen analyst Marcin Kazmierczak emphasized that counter-tariffs could create a cycle of retaliatory measures, complicating market stability. Alongside these tariffs, other factors such as regulatory updates and institutional adoption are also expected to impact Bitcoin's resilience compared to traditional financial instruments. Aurelie Barthere from Nansen noted that markets could remain pressured by tariff-related concerns until negotiations conclude after April 2, when some of the new tariffs take effect. Bitcoin's price dynamics are believed to correlate not only with trade policies but also broader economic conditions and strategic developments in cryptocurrency adoption.
