Tariff and Conflict Fears Shake and Badly Influence Crypto Market
Back in April 2025, a global selloff erupted worldwide after the tariffs announcement made by the United States president that shaked the traditional and crypto markets. Then in June, fear triggered by a broader conflict due to rising Israel-Iran tensions created another wave of uncertainty. Now, markets are reacting to concerns over a potential 100% tariff from China, fueling fresh anxiety worldwide that has created chaos not only in the traditional finance (TradFi) but also badly affected the decentralized Finance (DeFi).
Though such recurring fears have cautioned the crypto traders and investors. Yet, the pattern highlighted by CryptoRus is unmistakable as every dip driven by fear has pushed Bitcoin ($BTC) down to the 50-week SMA, before it bounced back with greater momentum. The chart is clearly showing that previous fear and greed readings near support levels marked pivotal reversal zones, not the complete breakdowns.
Fear-Driven Panic Fades and Institutional Confidence Grows
Market analysts believe that that volatility is not actually the destruction but somehow it’s a cleansing force. Short-term panic events or dips flush weak hands and reset overheated conditions. Meanwhile, the whale continue to strengthen their portfolio. Institutional adoption like Strategy’s consistently increasing portfolio is also accelerating.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs are unlocking new liquidity, and global regulatory clarity is increasing investor access and giving a positive outlook. While fear index is grabbing headlines in the crypto market, remember it fades quickly as well. What’s more important is the rising adoption, expanding liquidity, and maturing market outlook. Based on such scenario, this saying fits the scene, ‘Fear Is Temporary, Gains Are Lasting’.
