The new week for Bitcoin (BTC) and altcoins began with US President Donald Trump threatening NATO countries with extensive tariffs over control of Greenland.
As this event shook global markets, Trump announced that the US would impose a 10% tariff on goods from the UK, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and Finland starting February 1st, and that this rate would increase to 25% by June.
As markets follow the US-EU tariff tensions, Coinshares released its cryptocurrency report, stating that there was a $2.17 billion inflow last week.
“Cryptocurrency investment products saw their largest weekly inflows since October 2025, totaling $2.17 billion on Friday, despite market sentiment weakening due to geopolitical tensions, tariff threats, and policy uncertainties.”
