Impact of Trump's Tariffs in the Trade War
In 2025, during his second term, Donald Trump intensified the trade war with China through a series of aggressive tariffs that provoked global economic tensions and a strong reaction from Beijing.
Tariff Escalation
Starting in February 2025, Trump imposed a universal tariff of 10% on most imports, followed by a specific increase of 145% on Chinese products, arguing unfair trade practices and China's lack of cooperation in the fight against fentanyl trafficking. China responded with tariffs of 125% on American products, affecting key sectors such as agriculture, energy, and technology. Additionally, it implemented restrictions on the export of strategic minerals and sanctioned American companies linked to defense and technology.
Economic Impact and Internal Pressure
The tariff measures caused an 8% drop in the S&P 500 during the first 100 days of Trump's term, marking the worst performance in over half a century. Business leaders and politicians, such as Warren Buffett, criticized the strategy, pointing to rising consumer prices and disruptions in supply chains.
De-escalation Agreement
On May 12, 2025, after negotiations in Switzerland, the United States and China agreed to a mutual reduction of tariffs: the U.S. lowered its tariffs from 145% to 30%, while China reduced its tariffs from 125% to 10%. This agreement included a 90-day pause on the imposition of new tariffs and China's commitment to eliminate non-monetary trade barriers and increase efforts to combat fentanyl trafficking. Markets reacted positively, with a 2.6% increase in the S&P 500.
Despite this truce, structural tensions related to technological competition and national security persist, suggesting that the trade relationship between both countries will remain volatile in the near future.

$BTC - Last 48 hrs
In the last 48 hours, Bitcoin (BTC) has shown notable volatility, influenced by macroeconomic factors and significant corporate movements. The current price of Bitcoin is approximately $102,732 USD, with a variation of -1.54% compared to the previous close.
Factors Influencing the Market
📊 Trade Agreement between the U.S. and China
The announcement of a temporary reduction in tariffs between both nations generated optimism in the markets, initially boosting the price of Bitcoin. This underscores how global trade tensions can directly influence cryptocurrency markets.
💰 Significant Purchase by Strategy
The company Strategy, led by Michael Saylor, acquired 13,390 BTC for a value of $1.34 billion, raising its total holdings to 568,840 BTC. This move reinforces the narrative of Bitcoin as a store of value for large institutions.
🏢 IPO of American Bitcoin
The miner Hut 8 announced that its subsidiary, American Bitcoin, backed by Eric Trump, will go public through a merger with Gryphon Digital Mining, which could attract greater institutional attention to the sector.
Outlook and Conclusion
Although Bitcoin showed upward momentum following these positive news, rapid profit-taking and uncertainty about the duration of the trade agreement have limited its rise toward new all-time highs. Resistance around $109,000 USD remains a challenge, and investors remain cautious about potential changes in global economic policies.

#TrumpCongressSpeech
On March 4, 2025, President Donald Trump delivered a speech before a joint session of Congress
Trump's speech highlighted ideological inconsistencies by promoting policies that, although aiming to strengthen certain sectors, may contradict fundamental principles such as support for international allies, promotion of the free market, separation between the public and private sectors, and defense of individual rights.
Foreign policy and support for Ukraine
Trump stated that "Ukraine is ready" to sign a minerals agreement and that it is willing to negotiate peace. However, he had recently suspended military aid to Ukraine indefinitely, seeking to pressure President Zelensky to sign said agreement. This suspension could weaken Ukraine's position against Russia, contrasting with his declaration of commitment to peace and support for Ukraine.
Trade policy and tariffs
The president emphasized the imposition of tariffs on agricultural products starting April 7, with the aim of boosting American farmers. However, this measure could increase costs for consumers and provoke trade retaliation from other countries, negatively affecting sectors that depend on exports.
Government reform and efficiency
Trump announced the creation of the Department of Government Efficiency, headed by Elon Musk, with the purpose of reducing bureaucracy and improving government efficiency. Delegating this responsibility to a business figure like Musk could create conflicts of interest and raises questions about the separation between the public and private sectors.
Social policies and individual rights
The president emphasized the elimination of critical race theory in schools and the protection of traditional gender identity. These measures may be seen as a limitation on diversity and inclusion, which are fundamental values in a democratic society.

⛔ How to Scam Investors: The $LIBRA Case
Binance has already removed an article I wrote about the big scam promoted by Javier Milei, after receiving several complaints from his fans, claiming it was for publishing false information. We already know that Milei participated in this scam and is guilty. The evidence is out there; I can spend the whole year posting more evidence of this scam. Search on YouTube, and you will be surprised. [◽]
The recent scandal surrounding the $LIBRA token has highlighted a key risk in the world of cryptocurrencies: the ability to modify smart contracts after their launch. This functionality, known as ISmutable, allowed the token creators to implement changes that ultimately harmed investors, benefiting only the project's developers and their collaborators.

According to Jinshi Data, President Trump announced plans to impose additional tariffs on countries that tax U.S. exports. He also stated that Congress is close to passing the largest tax cut bill in U.S. history, calling it a “rocket” for the U.S. economy. The combination of tax cuts and new trade measures could lead to stronger domestic growth and investor confidence—but may also introduce global trade uncertainty and inflationary risks.
