Trump’s proposed tariffs on countries taxing U.S. exports could spark a new wave of economic tension. While they might offer short-term leverage in trade negotiations, the long-term effect could be increased global volatility. History shows that tariffs often trigger retaliation, disrupting supply chains and pushing investors toward safer assets.
In this context, crypto might see a boost. As traditional markets wobble under geopolitical pressure, decentralized assets like Bitcoin often attract attention as hedges. However, risk assets tend to suffer during uncertain periods, which means altcoins could face pressure too.
Tariffs may serve a political agenda, but market stability could be the collateral damage.
