The Double-Edged Sword of Tariff Ghosts
The AI model from Boston Consulting has projected an absurd scenario: the White House's tariff list has instead become a fuel pump for Bitcoin. Every additional 1% tariff tears a larger gap in global payment channels, forcing cross-border capital to flow into the capillaries of the Lightning Network. Monitoring from Singapore's DBS Bank's digital vault shows that a textile giant from Vietnam is using Bitcoin to pay tariffs on American cotton, settling 12.7 times faster than SWIFT, with fees only 0.03% of the Federal Reserve's ACH system.
