Cryptocurrency prices fell on February 3 as investors grew increasingly concerned about a new trade war.

According to the newspaper South China Morning Post (SCMP), currency bitcoin in Asian trading this morning was at around $96,606, down 4%, hitting a three-week low.

Smaller cryptocurrencies like ether have fallen about 12%, returning to prices seen in early November 2024.

Investors say the signing of the decree tariffs on Mexico, Canada, China US President Donald Trump's decision on February 1 could harm business growth and increase risks to the investment environment. This concern has prompted investors to withdraw money from high-risk channels, including cryptocurrencies.

At the same time, cryptocurrencies are also under additional downward pressure after a sharp rally from the November 2024 election.

This is because some investors feel frustrated that Mr. Trump has not made any immediate moves to promote cryptocurrencies or loosen regulations since he took office, according to SCMP .

“Cryptocurrencies are really the only way to represent risk over the weekend and with news like this, crypto will move to use as a proxy for risk,” said Chris Weston, research director at Australian-based financial brokerage Pepperstone.

Cryptocurrency exchanges turned red after China, Mexico and Canada responded to US President Donald Trump's tariff decree.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum and China's Ministry of Commerce both said they would take corresponding countermeasures in response.

Meanwhile, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau imposed a 25% tariff on 155 billion Canadian dollars ($106.5 billion) worth of US goods from February 4.
