Bitget Research Institute: Trump's Tariff Remarks Trigger Safe-haven Sentiment, Bitcoin May Benefit from a New Round of Global Safe-haven Trend

On April 2nd, Ryan Lee, the chief analyst of the Bitget Research Institute, pointed out that with the new tariff plan proposed by US President Trump, Bitcoin's safe-haven property is receiving more attention. His proposal of "uniformly imposing a 20% tariff" has triggered market concerns about fiat currency, especially the confidence in the US dollar, especially against the backdrop of rising inflation expectations. Jim Reid from Deutsche Bank and Chris Weston from Pepperstone have both warned that if this policy is implemented, the global economy may face the risk of "stagflation", where costs rise while economic growth is limited. From an economic fundamentals perspective, if this round of tariffs is implemented, it may increase manufacturing costs and exacerbate inflation. This event may lead to continued market uncertainty. In this environment, the demand for Bitcoin as an inflation hedge and safe-haven asset is expected to increase significantly.
