Everyone is staring at the red candle because $BTC dipped below 65k after Trump pushed global tariffs to 15%. The move wiped out over‑leveraged longs and gave the media a fresh “crypto is in trouble” headline. But if you zoom out, this is not a story about one dump – it’s a live experiment in how a politicized trade system collides with neutral, 24/7 money. Tariffs, ETF outflows and AI‑driven trading desks are all hitting the same order books at once.
I’m less interested in catching the exact bottom and more in watching who quietly adds here: ETF issuers, long‑only funds, AI agents that don’t care about Twitter sentiment. If $BTC can stabilize in the low‑60k area while traditional markets stay nervous about tariffs and growth, the message is simple: the asset is maturing faster than the headlines admit. When the next up‑leg starts, the same people who sold into this fear will call it “manipulation”. The rest of us will remember it as just another transfer of coins from impatient hands to patient ones.
