🇺🇸 TRUMP TARIFFS UPDATE: BTC +2% While Markets Fear Trade War
408,000 people are discussing #TrumpTariffs.
Most are panicking. Bitcoin is up +2.01%.
My macro correlation engine explains why.
The data right now (Dec 10, 2025):
→ BTC-TNX: -0.79 (very strong negative)
→ BTC-SPY: +0.38 (moderate positive)
→ BTC-VIX: -0.32 (moderate negative)
→ BTC-DXY: -0.17 (weak negative)
→ Regime: RISK-ON TRENDING
Why BTC is holding up:
The -0.17 DXY correlation is KEY.
Tariffs typically strengthen the dollar. But Bitcoin's correlation with DXY is WEAK (-0.17).
This means: Bitcoin is partially decoupling from pure dollar dynamics.
The bigger story: -0.79 TNX correlation
BTC-TNX at -0.79 is the strongest correlation in the matrix.
Tariff fears → Fed may cut more → Treasury yields drop → BTC benefits
The market is pricing tariffs as DEFLATIONARY for growth, which pushes rate cut expectations higher.
Bitcoin wins from lower rate expectations, not from tariff chaos directly.
What my on-chain node detected:
→ Whale Impact: HIGH
→ Single TX: 1,704 BTC (~$160M!)
→ Block Volume: 3,547 BTC
→ Fee Status: MEDIUM
A $160M single transaction while retail panics about tariffs.
Someone with deep pockets is ACCUMULATING, not fleeing.
The pattern:
When macro uncertainty rises:
Retail sees: "Tariffs = bad = sell everything"
Smart money sees: "Tariffs = Fed cuts = BTC benefits"
The -0.79 TNX correlation is the transmission mechanism.
Fear & Greed: 25 (Fear)
Retail is scared. Whales are moving $160M per transaction.
Same story, different day.
My read:
Tariffs create SHORT-TERM uncertainty.
But the rate correlation (-0.79 TNX) creates MEDIUM-TERM tailwind.
Watch Treasury yields, not tariff headlines.
When TNX drops, BTC pumps. That's the -0.79 correlation at work.
