China is sharpening its stance in the economic clash with the United States, issuing what financial leader Nigel Green has characterized as a deliberate and forceful message. On April 8, the CEO and founder of international financial advisory firm Devere Group warned that recent policy signals from Beijing point to a government readying itself for a long-term trade war. Central to that message is China’s move to let the yuan depreciate, which Green described as a calculated maneuver. He stressed: The weakening yuan is not simply market mechanics at work; it is Beijing putting Washington on notice that far more forceful actions are in reserve if escalation continues. Facing heightened U.S.-China trade tensions, Beijing allowed the yuan’s reference rate to cross the symbolic 7.20 mark per dollar for the first time since September 2023, signaling a shift in foreign exchange policy. The People’s Bank of China set the fixing at 7.2038 on April 8, leading to the onshore yuan’s decline, despite improving investor sentiment. Analysts interpret this as a move toward managed depreciation to support exports amid economic strain, though sharp devaluation remains risky due to capital flight and trade negotiation setbacks. President Donald Trump escalated pressure with threats of 50% tariffs, prompting China to vow retaliation and impose rare earth controls. According to the White House press secretary, an additional 104% in tariffs took effect at noon Eastern time on April 8 due to China’s failure to lift its retaliatory measures. Green dismissed the idea that Beijing would fold under mounting pressure from Trump’s administration. Instead, he emphasized the Chinese government’s strategy of resilience and counter-planning. “This is now a battle of endurance. Trump is ratcheting up the pressure, believing he can force concessions through intimidation.” He contrasted this with Beijing’s approach: Beijing, however, is determined to show that it will not be cowed. Rather than rolling over, China is fortifying itself — insulating key industries, diversifying its supply chains, and preparing policy weapons for a prolonged standoff. Behind the scenes, both governments are proceeding cautiously, but Green observed increasing confidence from China. He said the timing and nature of the yuan’s decline reflect Beijing’s serious stance, describing it as a calculated move rather than a short-term devaluation. Green characterized it as a clear signal to the White House that further escalation will carry consequences. He added that the financial sector is already adapting, with China signaling its readiness to use significant economic tools if tensions continue. “Trump’s White House should not mistake restraint for weakness. Beijing is showing strategic patience, but there’s real steel underneath. If Washington continues to escalate, China’s response will not be meek — it will be methodical, far-reaching, and designed to maximize impact where it hurts the most,” Green opined. He added that global markets are entering a phase where tactical actions, such as a weakening yuan, are not solely financial signals but part of broader geopolitical strategy. The Devere executive advised investors to prepare for a long-term shift, emphasizing that China is planning for sustained change. He said structural changes in global trade could define the next decade. Green concluded with a stark forecast: Beijing is setting the terms of engagement. Washington can choose to escalate, but it will not do so without facing increasingly sophisticated countermeasures. China is no longer trying to avoid a trade war at all costs — it is preparing to win one if forced into it. 免责声明：本文章仅代表作者个人观点，不代表本平台的立场和观点。本文章仅供信息分享，不构成对任何人的任何投资建议。用户与作者之间的任何争议，与本平台无关。如网页中刊载的文章或图片涉及侵权，请提供相关的权利证明和身份证明发送邮件到support@aicoin.com，本平台相关工作人员将会进行核查。

Co-founder of BitMEX Arthur Hayes warns that U.S. Treasuries may no longer hold their position as the world’s top reserve asset. In a post on X, he says America’s expanding debt, coupled with changing trade policies and rising global tension, could push investors toward gold and Bitcoin. Hayes points to the sharp rise in U.S. federal debt since the gold standard ended in 1971, using a St. Louis Fed chart showing an 85-fold increase. Hayes says this expansion reflects the credit needed to support the global economy as the U.S. dollar took center stage in trade and finance. Related: The Unexpected Upside: Tariffs Depress Treasury Yields, Shine Light on Crypto He noted that this debt-driven growth has produced uneven results. Some Americans gained wealth, while others saw few benefits. Hayes argues that this divide fueled political discontent, leading to the election of Donald Trump by those who felt excluded from decades of economic expansion. Trump’s push to reduce the U.S. current account deficit via tariffs could backfire, Hayes stated. If foreign nations earn fewer dollars through trade, they might be forced to sell existing U.S. Treasury and equity holdings to support their own economies, rather than recycling dollars into buying more U.S. assets. Hayes added that even if tariffs ease later, policy uncertainty might deter foreign reliance on the U.S. financial system long-term. Given this potential instability, Hayes believes gold will re-emerge as a preferred neutral reserve asset, as it’s untethered to national policies like tariffs and tradable globally. He anticipates central banks increasingly using gold for international trade settlement. He also highlighted Bitcoin as a digital alternative store of value, likely gaining appeal as trust in traditional financial systems weakens.

He specifically forecasts the USD/CNY exchange rate reaching 10.00, driven by political pressures and Beijing’s policy resistance, calling this currency shift a potential “super bazooka” for Bitcoin. Hayes plans to elaborate on the USDCNY dynamic in a future essay. Disclaimer: The information presented in this article is for informational and educational purposes only.

South Korean authorities detailed two fraudulent trading tactics used in the price manipulation of the Fusionist (ACE) token, which resulted in investor losses totaling 7.1 billion won ($4.85 million). Findings from a trial in Seoul specify how traders used artificial strategies to deceive the market. The first method involved artificially inflating trading volume. Manipulators strategically placed buy limit orders above the market price while simultaneously setting sell limit orders below it. This created a false impression of high demand, leading traders to believe the token was experiencing organic growth. Reports indicate smart contracts automatically executed these orders, maintaining constant activity and masking the lack of genuine market interest. The second method involved creating fake buy pressure via spoofing. Manipulators placed buy orders at five price levels above the last traded price, designed to mimic real investor demand, only to automatically cancel them within three seconds. Repeating this process continuously misled traders about sustained interest, artificially driving up the price.

These tactics caused a 15-fold surge in daily ACE volume on Bithumb, with “hit” orders accounting for nearly 89% of the activity. Prosecutors noted the defendants also placed legitimate sell orders to liquidate coins entrusted to them, though these were not part of the manipulation charges. Authorities believe these manipulative strategies significantly contributed to investor losses, highlighting concerns over unregulated trading practices. The ongoing trial in Seoul will determine the legal consequences for those involved.

Ripple’s stablecoin, RLUSD, recently caught attention following positive growth metrics detailed in its February monthly attestation report. That report showed RLUSD’s market cap reached approximately $170 million. This figure reportedly surpassed internal projections at the crypto custodian Standard Custody, prompting its CEO to forecast that RLUSD could potentially become a top 5 stablecoin by market cap by the end of 2025. Analysts now assess the factors supporting this potential growth trajectory. Several elements could contribute to RLUSD’s expansion, according to analysis shared by the Standard Custody CEO. The stablecoin is now available on additional exchanges, citing LMAX Group as one example providing wider accessibility.

Also, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) like DIVA Donate and Mercy Corps Ventures reportedly use the stablecoin to streamline their charitable giving operations, demonstrating real-world adoption. For RLUSD to break into the top 5 stablecoin rankings by the end of 2025, it faces a significant climb. It would need to surpass the market capitalization of the current fifth-ranked stablecoin, FDUSD. At the time of writing, FDUSD’s market cap stood around $2.59 billion, based on CoinMarketCap data. RLUSD, meanwhile, ranked 12th with a market cap near $194 million. This difference implies RLUSD requires roughly 13-fold growth over the next nine months to overtake FDUSD’s current size (assuming FDUSD itself experiences no major growth). The dominant stablecoins USDT, USDC, DAI, and USDe currently occupy the top four positions.

According to Ripple, it is fully backed by reserves of cash and cash equivalents, making each RLUSD token redeemable 1:1 for US dollars through approved channels. Its potential ascent into the top tier depends heavily on continued adoption, expanding use cases, and favorable market conditions.
