Bitget Research Institute: Trump's tariff remarks triggered risk aversion, Bitcoin may benefit from a new round of global risk aversion

Odaily News Ryan Lee, chief analyst at Bitget Research Institute, pointed out that as US President Trump proposed a new tariff plan, Bitcoin's safe-haven properties are gaining more attention. His proposal of "uniformly imposing a 20% tariff" has caused the market to shake confidence in fiat currencies, especially the US dollar, especially against the backdrop of rising inflation expectations. Jim Reid of Deutsche Bank and Chris Weston of Pepperstone both warned that if the policy is implemented, the global economy may face the risk of "stagflation", that is, rising costs and limited economic growth.
From the perspective of economic fundamentals, if this round of tariffs is implemented, it may push up manufacturing costs and exacerbate inflation. This event may continue market uncertainty. In this environment, the demand for Bitcoin as an anti-inflation and safe-haven asset is expected to increase significantly.
