While stock markets are experiencing a historic loss, Bitcoin is losing ground and has fallen below 80,000 dollars. This decline, far from being trivial, reignites the debate about its safe haven function. At a time when trade and political tensions are reshaping the global economy, the line between traditional assets and cryptocurrencies is blurring. A moment of truth is therefore approaching for BTC and for investors' allocation strategies.

The Ethereum network has reached a historic milestone with 200,000 addresses holding stablecoins. This record adoption stands as the backbone of a more mature digital economy, potentially reshuffling the cards for this altcoin whose price is struggling to take off.

The FTX saga continues to shake the crypto ecosystem. Nearly 400,000 creditors of the now-bankrupt platform risk permanently losing their rights to refunds, estimated at over $2.5 billion. The cause: the failure to adhere to the mandatory identity verification process, the famous KYC (Know Your Customer).

The Trump administration has just triggered a real commercial earthquake. Through the imposition of a universal customs tax of 10%, soon raised to 34% for certain countries, Washington is reviving an aggressive protectionist strategy. This decision, counter to multilateral rules, threatens to reconfigure global trade and is already prompting reactions from more than 50 states. In a tense international context, this major shift could well mark the beginning of a new era of economic confrontation.

Decentralized exchange platforms are continuing their expansion in the crypto universe, challenging the supremacy of centralized players, despite a recent incident on Hyperliquid that resulted in a loss of several million dollars.

Trump's new taxes destabilize the markets. What are the consequences for the American economy? The full analysis here!

The storm is hitting crypto. On the night of April 7, 2025, Bitcoin collapsed below the symbolic threshold of $75,000, hitting an intraday low of $74,637! In just 24 hours, the leading cryptocurrency lost more than 10%, triggering a shockwave across the entire market.

As clouds gathered over the crypto landscape, a lightning bolt split the sky: Ethereum, an indispensable pillar, lost 14% of its value in 24 hours. A brutal drop, amplified by the liquidation of an Ethereum whale for $106 million on Sky, the DeFi platform rebranded in August. Behind these numbers lie cold mechanisms, ruthless mathematical ratios, and a chain reaction cruelly reminiscent of the fragility of decentralized ecosystems. What if this debacle reflected a market still too sensitive to geopolitical shocks, such as Donald Trump's recent customs announcements? A deep dive into the guts of algorithmic carnage.
