What would have happened if, 16 years ago, a user of a social network, let's say their name was Satoshi Nakamoto, had published that a newborn digital currency, without institutional backing and called bitcoin (BTC), would become one of the most resilient assets against a financial crisis triggered by a 'tariff war'?

Many investors and traders would have laughed, while social media would have been flooded with memes.

And yet, here we are.

But let's take a brief look back to understand why Donald Trump, President of the United States, put the world, as we knew it, in check with the announcements he made on April 2nd, during the 'Liberation Day'.

As reported by CriptoNoticias, the U.S. president imposed reciprocal tariffs on dozens of countries, with special emphasis on products coming from China, Canada, the European Union (EU), and all of Latin America.

This move marked the beginning of an escalation in global trade tensions, generating uncertainty in the markets and provoking immediate reactions from trading partners like China and the EU.
