Massive US-China Tariff Rollback Deal Ignites Global Markets, Crypto Prices Surge Amid Risk-On RallyMassive US-China Tariff Rollback Deal Ignites Global Markets, Crypto Prices Surge Amid Risk-On Rally Geneva, May 12, 2025 — In a surprise move shaking up both traditional finance and the crypto market, the United States and China have reached a landmark agreement to drastically roll back tariffs on each other’s goods for an initial 90-day period. The unexpected breakthrough in the long-running trade war sent Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and top altcoins climbing alongside global stock markets. After two intense days of closed-door negotiations in Geneva, officials from the world’s largest economies announced "substantial progress," aimed at stabilizing strained trade ties and calming market volatility.

Asian equities followed suit — Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index closed up 3%. In parallel, Bitcoin price surged 4.2% to reclaim $69K, while Ethereum jumped 5.6% past $3,600. Altcoins like Solana (SOL), XRP, and Chainlink (LINK) also saw double-digit intraday gains as crypto investors cheered a global risk-on rally. “This is the kind of macro catalyst crypto markets thrive on,” said Jayson Lee, a digital assets analyst at FalconX. “With recession fears cooling and liquidity conditions improving, expect bullish momentum in BTC, ETH, and Layer-1 tokens over the coming weeks.” Details of the Tariff Rollback Under the agreement, the US will temporarily slash tariffs on Chinese imports from a punishing 145% to 30%, while China will cut its levies on American goods from 125% to 10%. Both sides agreed to suspend retaliatory non-tariff measures, including China's restrictions on rare-earth mineral exports and investigations into US tech firms.

U.S.-China Trade Tensions Escalate: What It Means for Bitcoin and Crypto The latest surge in U.S.-China trade tensions could have massive implications for global markets — and the crypto space might be right in the crosshairs. Here’s a quick look at what’s unfolding and why it matters: 1. Risk-Off Sentiment Rising The escalation is fueling global uncertainty, leading investors to pull back from risk assets. This could temporarily increase volatility across both traditional markets and crypto. 2. Digital Gold Narrative Strengthening Periods of geopolitical stress often reignite Bitcoin’s “digital gold” appeal. Increased fear could drive more investors toward Bitcoin as a hedge against macro instability. 3. Short-Term Volatility, Long-Term Opportunity While short-term shakeouts are likely, Bitcoin and major cryptocurrencies could emerge even stronger as investors seek decentralized alternatives to fiat currencies. 4. Global De-dollarization Accelerating Heightened trade tensions weaken confidence in the U.S. dollar, subtly fueling the broader narrative for blockchain-based assets and decentralized financial systems. This isn’t just another headline — it’s a pivotal shift that could redefine capital flows across global markets. Personally, I believe that while the coming weeks might bring turbulence, this environment could set the stage for Bitcoin to strengthen its position as a legitimate, globally recognized store of value. One thing’s clear: in times of uncertainty, the case for crypto only grows stronger. #USChinaTariff #TariffTensions #TariffPause
U.S.-China Trade Tensions Escalate: What It Means for Bitcoin and Crypto

The latest surge in U.S.-China trade tensions could have massive implications for global markets — and the crypto space might be right in the crosshairs.

Here’s a quick look at what’s unfolding and why it matters:

1. Risk-Off Sentiment Rising
The escalation is fueling global uncertainty, leading investors to pull back from risk assets.

This could temporarily increase volatility across both traditional markets and crypto.

2. Digital Gold Narrative Strengthening
Periods of geopolitical stress often reignite Bitcoin’s “digital gold” appeal.

Increased fear could drive more investors toward Bitcoin as a hedge against macro instability.

3. Short-Term Volatility, Long-Term Opportunity
While short-term shakeouts are likely, Bitcoin and major cryptocurrencies could emerge even stronger as investors seek decentralized alternatives to fiat currencies.

4. Global De-dollarization Accelerating
Heightened trade tensions weaken confidence in the U.S. dollar, subtly fueling the broader narrative for blockchain-based assets and decentralized financial systems.

This isn’t just another headline — it’s a pivotal shift that could redefine capital flows across global markets.

Personally, I believe that while the coming weeks might bring turbulence, this environment could set the stage for Bitcoin to strengthen its position as a legitimate, globally recognized store of value.

One thing’s clear: in times of uncertainty, the case for crypto only grows stronger.

US treasury secretary says ‘there is a path’ with China over tariff negotiations.#USChinaTariff tussle ‘The Chinese will see this high tariff level is unsustainable for their business,’ says Scott Bessent. The US treasury secretary, Scott Bessent, said “there is a path” to an agreement with China over tariffs after he had interactions with his Chinese counterparts last week in Washington. “I had interaction with my Chinese counterparts, but it was more on the traditional things like financial stability, global economic early warnings,” Bessent told ABC News’s This Week on Sunday, explaining that he had spoken to the Chinese during International Monetary Fund meetings in Washington. “I don’t know if President Trump has spoken with Chinese President ” he added. On Friday, Donald Trump claimed during an interview that discussions regarding tariffs were ongoing with China, a statement he reiterated while en route to Rome for Pope Francis's funeral. However, this assertion was subsequently refuted by China's foreign ministry, which stated that the United States should cease its attempts to create confusion. A day later, China’s foreign minister, said Beijing abides by international rules on US-imposed tariffs and would seek solidarity with other countries. He stated that the Chinese will recognize that the current high tariff levels are not sustainable for their businesses. He further noted that Beijing's assertion of no ongoing negotiations is aimed at a domestic audience. "I believe they are catering to a different demographic," Bessent remarked. "We have established a process, and I maintain that these tariffs imposed by China are not viable in the long term." On Sunday, US Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins stated that the United States engages in daily discussions with China regarding tariffs. 'We are in dialogue with China every day, as well as with approximately 99 to 100 other countries that are involved in these negotiations,' Rollins remarked during an appearance on CNN's State of the Union.  Furthermore, Rollins indicated that the president is ready to provide financial assistance to American farmers if the ongoing trade conflict continues to adversely affect commodity exports, especially in the areas of soybean and pork sales to China. Rollins said it could take months before it is known whether a bail-out is needed. “I don’t think we’re going to need it, but if we do, it will be there,” Rollins said.

#USChinaTariff A massive tariff on millions of Americans’ purchases just went into effect — cue the chaos The recent tariffs imposed on millions of Americans' purchases are likely to cause chaos in the economy. According to Brown University Professor of Economics Şebnem Kalemli-Özcan, these tariffs will harm the US economy, particularly American consumers who will ultimately absorb the costs. *Tariff Details:* - *25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico*: This will affect almost every sector in America due to the integrated trade partnership between the three countries. - *10% tariff on Chinese imports*: Although lower than the initially proposed 60%, this will still raise prices for consumers. *Potential Consequences:* - *Inflation*: Tariffs will lead to higher prices for goods, contributing to inflation. - *Unemployment*: Increased costs for businesses may result in job losses. - *Recession*: The planned tariffs could lead to a decline in jobs, producer investment, and consumer spending. - *Supply Chain Disruptions*: High tariffs, especially on Chinese imports, could cause significant supply chain interruptions. *Impact on Specific Industries:* - *Agricultural Products*: Tariffs on imports from Mexico will likely increase prices for fruits and vegetables like avocados. - *Electric Vehicles*: The Biden administration has already increased tariffs on electric vehicles to protect the American economy. *Expert Insights:* - "Tariffs are costly to the American consumer in the end," says Kalemli-Özcan. - "If you create a complete halt in international trade with your major trading partners, it's basically making the economy have a heart attack," she adds.

*Potential Consequences:*

- *Inflation*: Tariffs will lead to higher prices for goods, contributing to inflation.

- "If you create a complete halt in international trade with your major trading partners, it's basically making the economy have a heart attack," she adds.
