US President Donald Trump announced a 100% tariff on China on Friday, sending the price of Bitcoin (BTC) reeling below $110,000 at this writing.
The US president said the tariffs were in response to China attempting to place export restrictions on rare earth minerals, which are crucial for creating computer chips. Trump wrote on Truth social:
