Crypto news to know
The cryptocurrency market has experienced significant declines following US President Donald Trump’s announcement of tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China. Bitcoin’s price fell to a three week low, with other major cryptocurrencies like Ethereum and XRP also seeing substantial drops.
