The #TrumpTariffs era significantly shaped global trade and had lasting effects on the financial markets—including crypto. With tariffs raising tensions between the U.S. and China, many investors sought decentralized assets like Bitcoin as a hedge against uncertainty. This highlighted Bitcoin's role as a store of value in politically unstable times. While the direct impact of tariffs may not seem linked to crypto at first glance, the global economic strain they caused made decentralized finance more appealing. If similar trade tensions arise again, we could see a repeat of capital flowing into crypto assets, especially Bitcoin.
