XRP Soars 10% to $2, BTC Gains Over $6K After Tariff Pause (Market Watch)
Apr 10, 2025 1:23 AM

The trade war continues to impact the cryptocurrency market hard, but this time in a more positive way as BTC jumped to over $83,000 yesterday after the tariff pause for almost all countries.

The altcoins are also well in the green, with XRP leading the charge from the larger caps.

BTC Skyrockets

It has been a wild ride in the crypto industry lately, prompted by Trumps continuous moves on the macro scene. It all began last Wednesday during the so-called Liberation Day when he imposed a 10% tax essentially on the entire world, while countries like these in the EU and China got even bigger percentages.

While some retaliated, Trump became even more aggressive and increased the Chinese tariffs to 104% and then 125% yesterday. At the same time, he paused for 90 days the taxes against all other countries.

All of this news brought massive volatility to crypto. Just from this Monday, BTCs price had dropped to and below $75,000 on a couple of occasions, with the latest example coming yesterday. However, the aforementioned pause served as a propeller for immediate gains and bitcoin skyrocketed by almost nine grand from bottom to the top.
