BREAKING: China Hits Back — Tariffs Surge to 84% on U.S. Goods
In a bold escalation of the global trade war, China has officially raised tariffs on U.S. goods from 34% to a staggering 84%, effective today (Thursday), according to a statement from the Ministry of Finance.
This sharp move comes in direct response to U.S. President Donald Trump's aggressive tariff strategy, which earlier today activated “reciprocal” tariffs across multiple nations — including a massive 104% duty on Chinese imports.
Meanwhile, the European Union is preparing its own countermeasures, set to roll out later today, signaling a deepening fracture in global trade alliances.
What this means for crypto:
Traditional markets may see increased volatility amid trade tensions.
Crypto, especially Bitcoin and stablecoins, could attract safe haven flows.
Investors and traders should watch USDT/CNY and BTC/USD pairs closely for potential movement.
Expect stronger discussions around de-dollarization and the rise of decentralized finance as nations seek alternatives to centralized monetary pressures.
As always, volatility creates opportunity.
Stay sharp, stay informed.
