What impact does Trump imposing a 100% tariff on Russian threats, supplying weapons to Ukraine have on Bitcoin?

▍BTC fell back below 120,000 after reaching a historical high.

The price of Bitcoin surged rapidly over the weekend and early Monday, reaching a historical peak of 123,091 USD, but then fell to 120,124 USD, and as of the time of writing, it hovers around 119,900 USD. This pullback coincided with Trump issuing threats of new tariffs against Russia and confirming military aid to Ukraine.

Despite the short-term adjustments, analysts point out that if the cryptocurrency bill is passed this week, Bitcoin may still initiate a new round of upward movement. Some institutions predict that this bull market could drive BTC prices to a new high of $136,000.

▍Trump's 100% Tariff Threat on Russia Triggers Market Turbulence

At a joint press conference with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, Trump stated: "If the Ukraine conflict does not cease within 50 days, the United States will impose 100% secondary tariffs on Russia." He also confirmed a large-scale arms deal with Ukraine: "We will immediately deliver various weapons, with European allies covering the costs."
