Trump's Beijing meeting with Xi puts Bitcoin's $80,000 rally under a macro stress test

Bitcoin is trading just under $80,000 as President Donald Trump arrives in Beijing for talks with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, with traders treating the summit as a key risk-sentiment catalyst in a week already pressured by inflation and rising yields. April data showed CPI at 3.8% year over year and PPI at 6% year over year, while Wintermute flagged a leverage-led move as open interest rose from $48 billion to $58 billion in a month. BTC was down 1.42% over the past 24 hours at the time of publication.
