On July 14, the same day that Trump threatened to impose a 100% "secondary tariff" on Russia, the price of Bitcoin quietly hit a record high! Behind this coincidence, global capital is voting with real money - when the US tariff hammer hits Russia, China, India and other trading partners, tens of trillions of dollars are frantically looking for pressure-resistant containers, and Bitcoin has become the number one target.
1. 100% Tariff Nuclear Explosion: The Eve of the Explosion of the Global Trade Landscape
"Secondary tariffs" are aimed at Russian oil buyers in China, India and other countries: Trump has given Russia and Ukraine 50 days (before September 2) to force a ceasefire, otherwise he will impose a 100% punitive tariff on third countries that purchase Russian oil and natural gas, directly impacting giants such as China (accounting for 35% of Russia's seaborne crude oil) and India.
Russia strikes back strongly: Deputy Foreign Minister Ryabkov denounced the US ultimatum as "unacceptable" on the 15th, and said military action would continue if diplomacy failed. The war is advancing instead of retreating, and the energy supply chain is facing a nuclear explosion-level impact.
2. War and Currency Prices: The "Golden Law of Digital" Tempered by Five Years of Blood and Fire
Is history repeating itself? On the day the Russia-Ukraine war broke out in 2022, Bitcoin soared 20%, and the oligarchs' emergency transfer of assets triggered a "safe haven narrative", but then it plummeted 65% due to the Federal Reserve's violent interest rate hike.
New plot in 2025: In June, Israel launched an air strike on Iran, and the volatility of Bitcoin was only ±3% (less than 1/3 of that in 2022). Institutional funds poured in through ETFs to form a "volatility buffer" - BlackRock ETF had a net inflow of $420 million in a single day!
3. Trump’s “tariff change” triggered a huge shock in the cryptocurrency circle
April’s full tariff panic: Bitcoin collapsed to $74,500 in a single day, more than 210,000 people worldwide were liquidated, and panic spread.
Policy reversal in May: The extension of the negotiation window stimulated a 13% surge in Bitcoin, from $68,500 to $83,600. Policy reversal became a short-term ups and downs switch.
4. Tonight, Wall Street capital is secretly deploying three killer moves
The ammunition for "stagflation hedging" is loaded: If 100% tariffs are implemented, the surge in crude oil prices will push up global inflation. Bitcoin is replacing gold as a new generation of anti-stagflation assets - the BTC premium on Egypt's OTC exchanges once reached 8.2%!
The Fed's rate cuts force a nuclear explosion: Swap traders are betting on four rate cuts before the end of the year, and interest rate futures show that the probability of a rate cut in September has soared to 71%. History has proven that during the rate cut cycle, Bitcoin's gains have crushed Nasdaq.
The ultimate bonus of "collapse of trust in fiat currency": Matt Hougan, chief investment officer of Bitwise, asserted: "regardless of the success or failure of Trump's tariff war, Bitcoin will eventually win all" - if the negotiations are successful, weak dollar + low interest rates will trigger a crypto bull market; if the negotiations fail, global money printing will push BTC to millions
Lao Zhu’s summary of getting rich: Trump’s tariff war = giving away money!
Remember three sentences:
Trump roared "100% tax increase" before September 2 → The world is panicking about the oil price increase → Bitcoin becomes a life-saving safe!
Putin said “I will continue to fight” → The war escalated → Wall Street was buying BTC crazily (BlackRock spent 420 million USD in one day)!
The Federal Reserve cut interest rates 4 times this year → flooding the earth → Bitcoin aims at $1 million!
The more Trump acts, the more Bitcoin will soar!
When political bigwigs tear each other apart, it’s time for cryptocurrency buddies to withdraw money!
Every plunge before September was a gift from God. Follow Lao Zhu, and he will bring you first-hand information and in-depth analysis!
