BTCUSD Surges 2.79% Amid Eased Tariff Fears and Bullish Sentiment
BTCUSD (Bitcoin) climbed 2.79%, reaching a high of $87,472.81, as market sentiment turned more positive on Friday. The uptick was driven by investor optimism that U.S. President Trump’s planned reciprocal tariffs, set for April 2, may be less severe than initially feared. Trump’s comments hinted at “flexibility” in the tariffs, and reports suggested that the measures may be more targeted rather than globally sweeping.
Despite this, caution remained, as global officials, particularly from China and Australia, warned that such trade policies could trigger ripple effects on the global economy.
