#特朗普5月13日访华 #Trump’s Visit to China on May 13: Tech Giants Accompanying, How Will the New US-China Power Play Shake Up the Crypto Market?

Introduction:
Today is May 13, 2026, and the global markets' attention is focused on the same aircraft landing in Beijing—“Air Force One.” This is Trump’s first visit to China after starting his second term, and it’s also the most high-profile state visit by a U.S. president to China in nearly a decade.
For our Gate traders, this is not just a political show but a deep upheaval involving supply chains, AI computing power, and global liquidity.

🚨 Core Highlights: The “Code” in the Accompanying List
The most unusual aspect of this visit is its scale of accompanying personnel. Besides Secretary of State Rubio, the list prominently features Elon Musk, Jensen Huang, and Tim Cook.

• AI Computing Power Battle: Huang Huang’s appearance has drawn market attention to whether NVIDIA’s chip export ban to China might be eased. If AI chip trade reaches some form of “compromise,” tokens related to the AI sector (such as $FET, $RNDR) could see a wave of positive sentiment.

• Manufacturing and Energy: Musk’s involvement often brings discussions about energy storage and autonomous driving. Against the backdrop of energy tensions caused by the Iran situation, the direction of China-U.S. cooperation on new energy and underlying computing infrastructure will directly impact global mining cost expectations.

📉 Macroeconomic Background: “Safe-Haven” Logic Amid Iran’s War Clouds
The Iran conflict is ongoing, and the energy blockade of the Strait of Hormuz keeps global inflation pressures high. A key agenda of Trump’s China visit is seeking Chinese assistance in mediating the situation.

• Safe-Haven Assets: If talks signal peace, crude oil prices may fall back, but if negotiations break down, BTC’s safe-haven property as “digital gold” could be reactivated.

• Tariffs and Exchange Rates: The market is waiting with bated breath for news about the establishment of the “Trade Committee.” Any adjustments to tariff policies will directly reflect on the US dollar index (DXY), and through liquidity spillover effects, influence cryptocurrency trends.

💡 What should investors pay attention to?

1. Volatility in the AI sector: Focus on joint statements regarding AI safety standards and chip trade during the China visit.

2. Rare Earths and Hardware Chain: Adjustments in China’s rare earth export quotas will directly affect the production costs of mining machine chips.

3. TikTok Partnership Model: Will the recently finalized TikTok joint venture model (ByteDance holding minority equity, Oracle overseeing data) be promoted to other tech fields? This will determine the compliance direction for cross-border Web3 projects.
