#USChinaTensions The tensions between the United States and China have reached a new critical level in April 2025.

President Donald Trump imposed tariffs of 145% on Chinese products, to which Beijing responded with tariffs of 125% on American goods. Additionally, China has suspended the delivery of Boeing airplanes and has restricted key exports, such as rare earths, affecting technology and defense sectors in the U.S.

The World Trade Organization warns that this trade decoupling could reduce bilateral trade by 80% this year, fragmenting the global economy into rival blocks.

China has also threatened retaliation against countries that sign trade agreements with the U.S. that harm its interests, intensifying pressure on Washington's traditional allies.

In this context of uncertainty, decentralized assets like Bitcoin are gaining attention as potential safe havens against geopolitical volatility.
