Trump’s India Tariffs Shake Global Trade—Here’s How Crypto Markets Are Reacting

Trade tensions escalate as new tariffs hit—digital assets brace for impact.

Geopolitical Shockwaves

Fresh tariffs on Indian goods trigger capital flight rumors—traders pivot to borderless alternatives as traditional markets wobble. Supply chain fears amplify Bitcoin’s ‘digital gold’ narrative overnight.

Crypto’s Hedge Momentum

DeFi volumes spike 40% as investors ditch correlated equities. Stablecoin flows to Indian exchanges hit ATHs—bypassing capital controls just like the pros. No permission needed.

Market Realities Bite

Not all alts rally. Trade-dependent tokens dip on macro anxiety. Crypto doesn’t erase risk—it just repackages it with higher volatility and 24/7 leverage. Because nothing says 'hedge' like 100x futures.

Wall Street’s déjà vu? Hardly. They’re still drafting memos while crypto portfolios rebalance in real-time. Tariffs might protect factories, but they can’t stop code—or greed.
