## Summary

Trump waived the threatened new tariffs on Russia as the October 18 oil deadline passed, leaving the trade response unresolved. The move reduces the immediate risk of tariff-driven escalation but does not remove uncertainty over Russia-related policy or energy markets. For Bitcoin, the near-term implications are indirect: oil-price and geopolitical shifts could influence inflation expectations and broader risk sentiment.
