Trump’s 50% EU Tariff Shock Could Send Investors Fleeing to Bitcoin—Here’s Why
Markets hate uncertainty—and nothing screams chaos like a surprise 50% tariff hammer dropped on EU imports. Cue the digital gold rush.
When traditional markets flinch, crypto tends to flex. Analysts are already eyeing Bitcoin and altcoins as potential hedges against the coming trade war turbulence—because nothing says ’portfolio insurance’ like volatile assets that laugh at borders.
Wall Street’s usual ’safe havens’? Please. Gold bugs and bond traders haven’t seen disruption like this since Satoshi ghosted the banking system. The real play? Watching institutional money do the tariff tango into decentralized assets while pretending they believed all along.
One cynical takeaway: Nothing accelerates crypto adoption faster than politicians playing economic Jenga with global markets.
