Bitcoin (BTC) and Nasdaq futures faced renewed selling pressure during Asia trading hours on Tuesday as China imposed retaliatory tariffs against the U.S.
Beijing imposed a 15% duty on U.S. coal and LNG and a 10% tax on crude oil, agricultural machinery, pickup trucks and large-engine cars. The move came after U.S. President Donald Trump’s new 10% tariffs on China came into effect.
On Monday, Trump agreed to a 30-day pause on his tariff threats against Mexico and Canada, offering a relief to BTC. The cryptocurrency’s price staged a remarkable recovery from nearly $92,000 to over $102,000 in hopes that the trade war would be short-lived.
China’s fresh action, however, has dented the recovery, sending BTC down to $98,500 at press time. The Nasdaq futures are down 0.6% with the dollar index drawing safe haven bids.
