Bitcoin Could Benefit and Emerges as Opportunity Amid Global Tariff Turmoil
- Bitcoin and tariff chaos.
- Hayes bullish on Bitcoin.
- Imbalances favor BTC.
The recent announcement of new rates trade disputes by the United States have sparked heated debates in the global economy. Amid these rising tensions, Arthur Hayes, co-founder of the BitMEX exchange, commented on the recent moves, arguing that Bitcoin (BTC) could emerge as a beneficiary in this scenario of economic uncertainty.
For Hayes, the distortions resulting from tariff-imposed policies can, paradoxically, boost the value of Bitcoin. In a post on X, he expressed his view emphatically: “I LOVE TARIFF.” Accompanying his statement, Hayes shared a chart illustrating the growing disparity between the United States’ current and financial account balances.
According to the expert, this long-term divergence, where the current account deficit has deepened while the financial account has expanded significantly driven by foreign capital, reveals an excessive dependence on external financing by the American economy.
Hayes also argued that this dynamic makes the US vulnerable to fluctuations in global capital flows. In this context, he predicts that global economic imbalances will be corrected, and the way governments tend to deal with this situation – by issuing more currency – would be fundamental to the appreciation of Bitcoin.
“Some of you are running scared, but I LOVE FARES, a little chart porn to understand why. Global imbalances will be corrected, and the pain will be covered up with printed money, which is good for $BTC.”

At press time, Bitcoin was trading at $82.743,78, down 1.2% over the past 24 hours. The asset has seen a nearly 3% drop in value over the past seven days. Amid the tariff turmoil, the market has fallen sharply, with BTC hitting $81 today before recovering to its current level.
The recent drop comes after US President Donald Trump announced new trade tariffs on several countries. The move brought instability to the markets, causing strong declines in cryptocurrencies.
