Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies saw a positive shift on Friday, April 5, despite a broader market downturn. Bitcoin rose over 2% to $83,959.19, with intraday highs reaching $84,717.51, bucking the trend of falling stocks and gold prices. Other cryptocurrencies like Solana and Dogecoin also gained about 6% each. However, crypto-related stocks like Coinbase dropped 6%, while MicroStrategy, a significant Bitcoin holder, advanced nearly 4%. This resilience came amid market jitters following China’s announcement of a 34% tariff on U.S. products, matching Trump's earlier tariff reveal on Chinese goods.
