Since the 2018 onset of the U.S.-China trade war, tariffs have become a core tool of the Trump administration. This article begins with a review of the trade war’s origins and impact, then focuses on Trump’s recent 125% tariff hike on Chinese goods after his 2025 return to the White House. We explore the April 10 announcement to suspend tariffs, which led to a strong rally in Bitcoin and other major crypto assets. At the macro level, tariffs influence digital asset markets through inflation expectations, interest rates, and rising mining costs. While the short term may see increased volatility, in the long run, crypto’s anti-inflation properties and safe-haven potential may lead to market revaluation. Investors should dynamically adjust to these structural changes.
