Divya Delhi: Bitcoin drops below $80,000 for the first time in three months on Friday. Due to global market instability, bitcoin sell-offs accelerated. The cryptocurrency fell almost 5% to $79,666, its lowest level since November 11, 2024. Bitcoin reached a record high of almost $105,000 in mid-December, but its market value has since fallen 25%. After Donald Trump's November election, the bitcoin market soared. Trump's campaign vows to liberalize digital token rules and make the US a cryptocurrency hub drove the rally. Bitcoin's recent advances matched worldwide market gains, but the euphoria has faded. The US president's trade policies—imposing tariffs on allies and risking a worldwide trade war—are to blame. Trump's tax and immigration cuts have raised inflation concerns. The Federal Reserve may maintain interest rates high longer than expected. Data suggests the US economy is slowing. Considering these considerations, we find two key reasons Bitcoin prices may be falling.
