Crypto Markets Plunge: Trade Tensions Fuel Market Uncertainty

The cryptocurrency market experienced a significant dip on Friday, with concerns over renewed U.S.-China trade tensions serving as a primary catalyst for the downturn. Bitcoin’s value fell over 2%, trading at $103,700. Other platforms like Solana, Sui, and Avalanche also saw substantial drops in price, highlighting the broader market impact. Crypto stocks were also affected, with Bitdeer (BTDR) experiencing an 8.3% decline after a recent surge, while MicroStrategy (MSTR) and Coinbase (COIN) faced modest losses of 2.7% and 1.3%, respectively. 2023’s bullish rally seems to be taking a hit as the market awaits clarity on these trade tensions.
