The U.S. is actively negotiating trade agreements with 34 countries under President Trump’s leadership, marking a significant shift in global trade dynamics. This week-long negotiation spree has impacted stock markets globally and raised concerns about potential short-term volatility for cryptocurrencies. The White House trade team, led by figures like Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, is working to reshape existing trade agreements. 18 proposals have been submitted and are currently being reviewed by the trade team. U.S. tariffs, which have sparked retaliatory actions from countries such as China, will likely play a major role in these negotiations. These developments could significantly impact global trade relations and economic partnerships. Past trade escalations have shown a correlation between market volatility and cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), and it’s possible that similar reactions to broader economic uncertainties may occur this time around.
