#TrumpTariffs

On July 7, 2025, Trump announced the sending of "warning letters" to dozens of countries - it is expected that from August 1, a tariff of up to 10% will come into effect, depending on whether new trade agreements are reached or not. If there is no progress in negotiations, these tariffs could rise to 70%, especially for countries that support "anti-American" positions within BRICS.

Particularly painful blows are expected for the European Union - the tariff on European goods could reach 50%, which means tough negotiations with Brussels and the possibility of countermeasures, including the EU considering customs duties on agricultural products, aircraft, etc.

This is a continuation of the "reciprocal tariffs" strategy: the U.S. responds to customs rates and taxes (including VAT) in other countries - any percentage of tax imposed on American exports could trigger a similar tariff from the U.S.

If the tariffs come into effect in August, a new wave of volatility is possible - initially sales, then a rebound, if there is a pause or agreements.

Long-term - strengthening the status of crypto as a decentralized asset and means of hedging - provided that regulation remains favorable.
