Trump tariffs crash stocks – But Bitcoin has seen it all before

Journalist

• Bitcoin holds above the key $94k liquidity zone despite rising macro FUD.
• Continued equity weakness may cool corporate backing, setting up a key test of BTC’s resilience.

President Trump’s “Make America Great Again” slogan has been a double-edged sword for the risk assets.

On one side, his bold, flag-waving nationalism brings clarity, but the unpredictability of his moves keeps the market guessing.

Enter Bitcoin [BTC], tagging a fresh all-time high (ATH) right as macro risk flares up again. The timing? Impeccably chaotic.

Now, BTC’s resilience is being stress-tested yet again. 

But according to AMBCrypto, after months of rate pivots, liquidity churn, and geopolitical noise, seasoned investors may have the muscle memory to play this right.

Does this make the current “dip” a calculated shakeout that smart money will exploit?

Bitcoins Conviction in Bitcoin faces another stress test

The 90-day tariff truce didn’t last long. 

Kicking off from the 1st of June, the reinstated 25% tariff on the EU is back—and it’s stirring up inflationary fears worldwide.

Naturally, Bitcoin reacted with a sharp 3.79% drop, closing at $106,816. It confirms volatility has officially re-entered the chat. Exit liquidity wasn’t far behind.

Glassnode data showed over 420k BTC sat with a cost basis around $94k, one of the strongest on-chain support zones in this cycle. 

That cohort’s still sitting on roughly 14.5% in unrealized gains at current prices, making the decision to HODL or exit anything but simple.

Still, with such a dense liquidity base and only a shallow dip in price, this move might be less panic — and more prep for another round of dip buying.

Just as AMBCrypto projected.

Bitcoins Classic investor dilemma returns amid renewed macro FUD

It wasn’t just the EU in the tariff crosshairs. Even Apple (AAPL) got hit too. 

A fresh 25% tariff targeting the $2.9 trillion titan is set to kick in from the 1st of June. While there’s still a negotiation window open, assuming Apple plays ball with Trump’s proposal, markets didn’t wait for a resolution.

The reaction? Swift and brutal.

In just five sessions, the S&P 500 bled $1.5 trillion in market cap. Meanwhile, Apple extended its losing streak, sliding nearly 8% from $212 over the past 10 days.

Why’s this a big deal? As equities take a hit, corporate money could pivot toward Bitcoin.

With risk capital on the move, BTC stands to gain, and Michael Saylor’s vocal support only adds fuel to the fire.

Bitcoins Bottom line

BTC is holding steady with no signs of capitulation, signaling strong conviction. Rather than sparking panic, macro FUD is instead turning into a playground for “strategic” dip-buyers ready to pounce.
