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

ChainCatcher news, Bitget Research Institute's chief analyst Ryan Lee pointed out that as U.S. President Trump proposed a new tariff plan, Bitcoin's safe-haven properties are gaining more attention. His proposal of "a unified 20% tariff" has triggered market concerns about fiat currencies, especially the U.S. dollar, particularly against the backdrop of rising inflation expectations.

Jim Reid from Deutsche Bank and Chris Weston from Pepperstone both warned that if this policy is implemented, the global economy may face the risk of "stagflation," where costs rise while economic growth is constrained.

From an economic fundamentals perspective, if this round of tariffs is implemented, it may push up manufacturing costs and exacerbate inflation. This event may prolong market uncertainty. In this environment, the demand for Bitcoin as an anti-inflation and safe-haven asset is expected to rise significantly.
