Cryptocurrency prices plunged on October 10, 2025, after US President Donald Trump announced plans for an additional 100% tariff on Chinese goods and export controls on critical software. Bitcoin fell more than 10% to below $110,000, while other major tokens like Ethereum and Solana dropped 15-30%. The sell-off led to over $7 billion in leveraged position liquidations within hours, according to Coinglass data.
