The cryptocurrency market took a significant hit on April 6, with Bitcoin leading the plunge as global financial markets entered a risk-off phase. The sharp decline in digital assets came amid rising concerns about a global recession, exacerbated by U.S. President Donald Trump’s aggressive tariffs. Investors rushed to safer assets like the yen and Swiss franc, causing a sharp drop in risk-sensitive currencies like the Australian dollar.
Ethereum, BNB, and XRP also suffered heavy losses, with Ethereum dropping 14.32%, BNB falling 7.29%, and XRP tumbling 15.56%.
