Crypto Meltdown: Bitcoin Slumps Under USD 100,000 Mark for the First Time in Weeks

Feb 03, 2025 at 12:52 pm

Amid these developments, another major facet of the global economics of the 21st century, the realm of cryptocurrencies also appears to have been placated.

Crypto Meltdown: Bitcoin Slumps Under USD 100,000 Mark for the First Time in Weeks

Donald Trump has threatened to impose tariffs on several countries, including his neighbours and closest trading partners, Mexico and Canada, as well as his rival China.

Crypto Meltdown

In other news, another major aspect of the global economics of the 21st century, the realm of cryptocurrencies also seems to have been affected.

However, in this case, unlike the previous few months, the value of the major cryptos appears to have decreased.

The biggest name in the crypto world, Bitcoin, has seen a decrease in value, dropping below the milestone mark of USD 1,00,000 for the first time in weeks.

Bitcoin

Bitcoin has suffered losses of 3.81 per cent just today, in fact, the value of the famed digital currency has declined by a colossal 9.45 per cent or USD 9,811.84 in just the past 5 days or a week.

At the time of writing, the value of the cryptocurrency took a diminutive posture, shrinking to 93,964.16 for a US Dollar.  

Ether

Meanwhile, another major crypto coin, Ether or Ethereum also dropped in value. Here, the decline is even greater, as the value of the currency declined by 12.48 per cent just today.

In the past 5 trading days, the value of Ether has dropped by a cumulative 19.43 per cent or USD 605.39, bringing the overall value of the coin to USD 2,510.46.

Trump's Crypto-Friendly Image

This is a major development in the context of what it means for US president Donald Trump himself. If the trend of decline continues, then Trump's self-proclaimed claim and posturing of being the most crypto-friendly US president may take a dent.

Not just that, the Trump family's own meme-coins, $TRUMP and $MELANIA (coin drawing its value from US First Lady Melania Trump) are also at risk of losing their value. These meme coins have also lost their value in the recent trading session.
