Such a showdown highlights critical stakes for the American economy, raising questions about the independence of central banks on a global scale.

After briefly exceeding the symbolic threshold of 100,000 dollars on January 7, Bitcoin experienced a dramatic reversal, falling to 92,500 dollars in just a few hours. This sudden decline cannot be explained by a technical factor but rather by major macroeconomic elements.
