U.S. – China Tensions Increased – Will it Boost Bitcoin?

Increased tensions between President Trump and China over the coronavirus pandemic are threatening to complicate a recovery from the worst global economic downturn in decades. 

Amid the coronavirus, the countries’relationship has hung over the market - In the past several months, US politicians proposed to delist Chinese companies from US stock exchanges with different criteria, and cap Americans’ exposure to the Chinese market. On Friday, China is once again attempting to assert authority over Hong Kong, sparking another bout of protests from concerned HK citizens. This seems to signal that previously easing tensions between the US and China will begin growing again, potentially having implications for the recently passed trade deal and the economy as a whole.

Tensions are rising again between U.S. and China may confirm the safe haven status of BTC and push its price rising.
