The Trump tariff news is wrecking the crypto and equities markets. Bitcoin\u2019s floor<\/a> gave way in Asia cracking to $114,250 and marking its lowest level since June 11.<\/p>\n

Three weeks of sideways chop ended in one clean move south that went as low as $111,000.<\/p>\n

According to CoinGlass, 158,000 traders were liquidated in the past 24 hours. Total liquidations hit $630 million<\/a>, with the majority from long positions. My gains, nooo!!!<\/p>\n

This liquidation trauma reflects pre-emptive risk reduction. Spot crypto holdings saw $110 billion withdrawn in the 12 hours preceding Trump\u2019s tariff announcement, underscoring heightened market anxiety.<\/p>\n

President Trump lit the fuse with a tariff blitz of 35% on Canada and up to 39% on non-allied economies. Countries without trade pacts got the worst of it; here\u2019s how low \"btcBTC \u25bc-2.82%<\/span><\/a> can go.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis week\u2019s dip reflects tariff deadline fear and broader macro uncertainty\u2026 it was likely exacerbated by profit-taking after recent ATHs.\u201d \u2014 Nick Ruck, LVRG Research<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Will There Be a Trump Tariff Pause, Or BTC Crashout?<\/h2>\n

Trump\u2019s tariff blitz came amidst deadline drama over a pending trade deal. The U.S. president also sharply attacked Canada\u2019s foreign policy shift, linking it directly to its new pledge to recognize a Palestinian state at the UN.<\/p>\n

On Truth Social, he wrote: \u201cWow! Canada has just announced that it is backing statehood for Palestine. That will make it very hard for us to make a Trade Deal with them. Oh\u2019 Canada!!!\u201d<\/p>\n

The oddity: Gaza had nothing to do with tariffs orcross-border commerce<\/a>, yet Trump made it central to negotiations. Countries like China, India, Laos, Switzerland, Syria, and South Africa have also been singled out for high tariff rates, with some exceeding 40%.<\/p>\n

Despite the sharp dip, July closed as Bitcoin\u2019s strongest monthly candle ever, ending at $115,784 only weeks after hitting its all-time high of $122,800.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, DeFi activity continues unabated. Total Value Locked (TVL) across decentralized finance protocols surged from $86 billion in April to over $126 billion by mid-July, a 46% gain.<\/p>\n

On \"ethETH \u25bc-5.83%<\/span><\/a> specifically: Ethereum TVL<\/a> climbed from $44 billion to over $72 billion in the same period, indicating robust on-chain demand and institutional trust.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s Ahead: Support, Sentiment, and Policy Risks<\/h2>\n

If Bitcoin reclaims lost ground quickly, it would reinforce resilience. However, a sustained dip below $111K could trigger deeper downside, especially if equities remain fragile.<\/p>\n

Boosting sentiment hinges on trade progress, especially a potential U.S.\u2013China deal. Without clarity, profit-taking may deepen, and broader risk assets could remain under pressure.<\/p>\n
