#数字资产市场动态 Trump's "Buy" Tariff Tactics: How Geopolitics Stir the Crypto Markets



U.S. President Trump, in his 45th and 47th terms, recently made a bold move—imposing a 10% tariff on imports from eight European countries, including France, Germany, and the UK, starting February 1, 2026. Even more aggressively, he threatened to double it to 25% in June. The purpose of this tariff combination is quite straightforward: to force Denmark to sell Greenland outright.

This is not just a simple trade war but a high-stakes gamble that ties together geopolitical assets, trade policies, and political leverage.

**Supply Chain Pressure, Safe-Haven Sentiment Rising**

Europe plays a significant role in U.S. global trade. The sudden imposition of tariff barriers will directly impact the stability of global supply chains. Companies will become more cautious, and markets will tighten. At this moment, many investors are considering: they need assets that do not rely on traditional financial systems and allow freer cross-border movement to hedge risks. Crypto assets like $BTC and $ETH happen to become safe havens for some funds.

**Inflation Spiral Resurging?**

Ultimately, tariffs will impact consumers. The prices of imported goods will rise, and domestic prices in the U.S. will also increase. The Federal Reserve's policy decisions will become more complicated—will rate cuts be dismissed? This policy uncertainty itself will increase market volatility.

**Deep Insights from Geopolitical Drama**

A country's island being used as a bargaining chip was almost unimaginable decades ago. But now, it has become headline news. Such "unconventional operations" reinforce a view: traditional international relations and asset ownership games are full of uncertainty and power struggles.

actually, let me break this down — the tariff thing is just macro noise masking what's really happening. supply chain chaos = inflation uncertainty = traditional finance hedging into crypto. it's not rocket science, ceteris paribus the correlation between geopolitical volatility and btc inflows is like... pretty textbook at this point ngl

Wait, I saw on the blockchain that last night a whale with address 0xd4a... dumped over 2000 BTC into an exchange, just two hours before the news was released? This can't be a coincidence...

Even Greenland can be used as a bargaining chip, so what can't be hyped... Now BTC has a reason to surge.

If I had known the tariffs would be so harsh, I wouldn't have exited the position so early... Now seeing BTC rise like this, I can't tell you how painful it is.

If Greenland can negotiate and sell, what else is impossible... Is BTC really about to take off?

Greenland can be used as a bargaining chip, but whether the coins we hold are still valuable is really uncertain... However, opportunities arise in chaotic times, and those who buy the dip now are all tough players.
