Bitcoin prices reached their lowest point of 2025 today. 3D render
Bitcoin prices extended their recent losses in the last few days, falling to their lowest point of the year as global investors responded to the latest concerns created by ongoing developments surrounding global tariffs.
The world’s most prominent digital currency declined to roughly $74,400 this morning, according to Coinbase figures from TradingView.
At this point, the cryptocurrency was trading at its most depressed value since November and had shed more than 30% of its value since reaching an all-time high of more than $108,000 in January, additional Coinbase data reveals.
When explaining these latest declines, analysts frequently pointed to concerns surrounding global tariffs, a matter that has generated significant news coverage over the last several weeks.
Asked about whether these developments were impacting bitcoin prices, Joe DiPasquale, CEO of cryptocurrency hedge fund manager BitBull Capital, answered in the affirmative, stating via email that “Yes, the recent drop in Bitcoin appears to be largely driven by a broader risk-off sentiment sparked by renewed tariff concerns.”
“As seen in past market cycles, Bitcoin tends to behave more like a risk asset than a safe haven, often mirroring movements in tech stocks and other growth-oriented investments,” he added.
“The fear of escalating trade tensions—particularly between major economies like the U.S. and China—can prompt investors to shift away from volatile assets like crypto and toward more stable options. This macro uncertainty, combined with profit-taking after Bitcoin’s sharp run-up earlier this year, likely contributed to the sharp sell-off,” said DiPasquale.
