🎭 What's happening? Trump is back in action: after the loud "Liberation Day" tariffs, he now plans to raise the customs level on countries that delay taxes on American exports. The new tariff on Chinese goods is 55%, additional rates on steel and aluminum are 50%, and a universal tariff of 10% on all imported goods (except Canada and Mexico) is also planned. And all this with the pomp of "rockets for the economy" and a clear TACO effect (Trump Always Chickens Out) — he slammed it down, then pushed it to negotiations .
🧩 The "long" package is signed — with tariffs up to 145%, then a discount to 30%, then 55%. And in London, Trump is exchanging magnets (which China promises to supply) for students from the PRC in the USA .

💼 How will this affect the markets?
📉 Americans have already seen the consequences: S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Dow fluctuate, with every "slam — 55%" — they fall. Bloomberg says tariffs are already starting to "seep" into inflation and the economy .
🏦 Foreign partners (Canada, EU, Asia) are getting nervous — preparing a counter-response. The Prime Minister of Singapore called it "fragmentation of the global economy" — and challenging tasks .

🔐 So what about crypto?
🌪 In short — if global trade is turning upside down, BTC and altcoins are not just a convenient exit, but a real safe haven.
📈 After discussions on BTC news, it jumped to $110,300, although it was then "released" to ~$109,500 .
🐻 But if tariffs spur inflation, the Fed may tune the rate (its rates), making crypto even more attractive as an alternative to the purchasing power of the dollar .

⚠️ What should you pay attention to?
💥 Inflation — taxes and customs restrictions can pressure CPI (already +2.4% in May), and the Fed may respond with monetary QE — good for BTC, as demand rises .
🌍 Global consequences — if economies like China and the EU respond in kind, it could trigger an international wave of instability — and a parade of BTC hedgers.
🕹 TACO effect — Trump both declares and postpones tariffs. The market is volatile, expectations of decisions are key triggers.

✨ Conclusion
Trump takes the stage like a guy with a flamethrower and a rocket pack. For crypto — this is a potential driver (if tariffs lead to inflation and the Fed reacts). But it’s not a smooth flight, but serious turbulence. BTC in the role of "digital oil" — is not a guarantee, but a growth tool in chaos.
🧭 If you want to "play" crypto — better prepare stop-losses, look at the dollar, gold, and see when they give a "rocket" and when — TACO.
