Analytical Article: The Impact of Trump’s Economic and Trade Policies in 2026 on the U.S. Dollar, Euro, Bitcoin, and Canadian dollar
By the end of 2025, it became possible to see clear outlines of President Donald Trump’s economic and trade policies, which are expected to continue and expand in 2026. These policies, built on the slogan “America First,” have direct effects on traditional currencies such as the U.S. dollar and the euro, as well as digital assets like Bitcoin, and commodity-linked currencies such as the Canadian dollar.
U.S. Dollar (USD)

The U.S. dollar remains relatively strong thanks to Trump’s protectionist policies in 2025, such as tariffs and efforts to rebuild domestic manufacturing. These measures attract capital into the American market and increase demand for the dollar. Rising yields on U.S. bonds, driven by industrial and energy spending, further support this trend, making the dollar more attractive to global investors. However, inflation caused by tariffs remains a challenge for the Federal Reserve. Trump presents this inflation politically as “the price of economic independence,” creating a narrative that supports the dollar’s strength despite pressures.
Euro (EUR)

The euro is directly affected by trade tensions. Any escalation between the U.S. and China, or between the U.S. and Europe, puts pressure on the European economy, which relies heavily on exports. In addition, Trump’s push for NATO members to increase defense spending adds extra burdens on European budgets, weakening the euro against the dollar. The likely scenario is continued relative weakness of the euro if U.S. policies keep attracting investments domestically, widening the gap between the two currencies.
Bitcoin (BTC)

Bitcoin benefits from the uncertainty created by protectionist policies and tariffs. In 2025, some investors already turned to Bitcoin as an alternative safe haven during times of tension. If Trump moves toward clearer regulations for the crypto market, as he began in 2025, institutional flows into Bitcoin could increase, strengthening its role as an alternative asset. However, Bitcoin remains sensitive to any security-related rhetoric against foreign platforms, which could trigger sharp volatility.
Canadian Dollar (CAD)

The Canadian dollar is closely tied to energy prices. Trump’s continued support for oil and gas in 2025 is expected to carry on into 2026, boosting crude prices and supporting the Canadian dollar as a commodity currency. Yet, the strength of the U.S. dollar may limit the Canadian dollar’s gains, creating a double effect: support from higher oil prices but pressure from a stronger U.S. dollar. The likely outcome is that the Canadian dollar moves within a balanced range, benefiting from energy but influenced by U.S. policy.
Conclusion

U.S. Dollar: Strong and dominant due to tariffs and higher yields.

Euro: Under pressure from trade tensions and defense spending.

Bitcoin: Gains from uncertainty and possible regulatory clarity.

Canadian Dollar: Supported by oil prices but limited by U.S. dollar strength.

China has just announced a 100% tariff on some Canadian agricultural and food products, in response to Ottawa’s tariffs on electric vehicles, steel, and aluminum imports from China. This move could indirectly affect the cryptocurrency market in a number of ways:
