šØ History Is Repeating Itself with
#TrumpTariffs Let me share a painful memory. In 2018, I was riding the crypto wave, feeling invincible. And then, the words "trade war" and "tariffs" started dominating the news. I ignored them. I thought, "What does politics have to do with my crypto portfolio?"
That was a mistake that cost me 60% of my capital in a few short months.
I'm writing this today not as an analyst, but as a survivor. The hashtag
#TrumpTariffs isn't just political noise. It's an echo from the past, and I'm hearing the same song again. But this time, I know the dance.
Most people think tariffs only affect physical goods. They're wrong. Tariffs create uncertainty. Uncertainty creates fear. And fear in financial markets makes capital flee to safety, crushing risk-on assets in the process.
What do I foresee? And what am I doing?
First, understand that the
$BTC "Digital Gold" narrative will be tested like never before. Don't be surprised if, amidst the tariff chaos, we see Bitcoin absorbing capital and rising while the stock market falters. It's the flight to safety.
However, altcoinsāespecially mid and small capsācould suffer immensely. When fear takes over, investors sell their riskiest assets first. We could see brutal corrections in solid projects like $ SOL or $ADA, not because the projects are bad, but because global "risk-off" sentiment will be high.
So, here is my planānot advice, my survival strategy:
I'm not panic selling everything. That would be repeating the 2018 mistake. Instead, I'm using the small relief rallies to trim my exposure to more speculative altcoins, increasing my position in
$BTC , and holding a portion in stablecoins, waiting.
Why? Because if history rhymes, the altcoin dip will be the opportunity of a lifetime to re-enter at prices many would call impossible today. But to buy that dip, you need to have capital. You need to have survived the initial storm.
I write this because I know what it feels like to watch your portfolio melt because of something you didn't understand. I don't want anyone to go through that. I might be wrong on the timing. No one knows the timing. But being prepared for the pattern isn't an option, it's an obligation.
The storm is gathering. Information is your only defense.
