As reported by CNBC, China has negotiated with Washington that the current trade tariffs will be ditched gradually, in phases. Both countries have agreed to change the current tariffs on some of the goods.

When the so-called ‘trade war’ broke out earlier this year, this coincided with a massive Bitcoin price surge. Many back then believed that the worsening of trade relations between the two super powers had its impact on the Bitcoin price – many Chinese investors started hedging their risks against the falling quotes of RMB.
