April 23, 2025 – London, UK – The global economy is marked by intensifying trade tensions and mounting concerns over currency debasement, while Bitcoin is increasingly being recognized as a potential hedge against monetary instability. Valentin Preobrazhenskiy, founder and CEO of LATOKEN, explores this paradigm shift in his recent article, “Will Trade Wars Make Bitcoin the Ultimate Hedge Against Currency Debasement?” published on TechBullion.
Preobrazhenskiy observes a notable decoupling of Bitcoin from traditional risk assets, such as equities, and a growing correlation with gold. “This movement signals a potential reclassification of Bitcoin by the market, not just as a speculative asset, but as a digital store of value with geopolitical significance,” he writes.
The article highlights the U.S. budget deficit nearing 6% of GDP, a level typically associated with wartime economies or major recessions. With ballooning interest payments and lagging tax revenues, economists warn of a possible debt spiral. In such scenarios, assets immune to inflationary pressures and political manipulation, like Bitcoin, become increasingly attractive.
Preobrazhenskiy notes that President Donald Trump has recently suggested the inclusion of Bitcoin in U.S. currency reserves, signaling a potential shift in policy and acknowledging Bitcoin’s growing legitimacy as a reserve-grade asset. “Bitcoin’s protocol-level independence makes it attractive in a world where traditional currencies are increasingly viewed through geopolitical lenses,” he asserts.
However, the article also addresses challenges facing Bitcoin, including market leverage concerns, regulatory uncertainties, and the theoretical threat of quantum computing. Despite these hurdles, Bitcoin’s decentralized nature and resistance to censorship position it as a compelling option for investors seeking to mitigate exposure to traditional financial systems.
“As someone who has built a digital asset exchange serving millions of users across 127 countries, I believe we are only beginning to understand Bitcoin’s evolving role,” Preobrazhenskiy concludes. “The market is speaking, and what it’s saying is clear: in times of uncertainty, neutrality is value.”
