Fellow retail investors, when you thought the biggest black swan in the crypto market was Satoshi Nakamoto's resurrection, Comrade Trump proved with actions: the true master of price manipulation is in the White House! This golden retriever with a natural talent for trending topics recently used a series of "suspension of new tariffs" moves to turn the crypto market into a large-scale reality show — the plot twist speed rivals Sun Yuchen's Weibo calls, and the excitement level is comparable to Vitalik forgetting his private key. The tariff transformation, Bitcoin rides the waves. On April 9, Trump pressed the nuclear button on the global trade war, announcing a maximum of 46% tariffs on 60 countries, which scared Bitcoin into a free fall overnight. As a result, 13 hours later, this old man suddenly pulled out a "90-day suspension" get-out-of-jail-free card, also adding a sarcastic buff of "China excluded," directly driving the market into a state of schizophrenia — Nasdaq surged 12%, setting a 20-year record, Bitcoin took off and broke $90,000, contract traders jumped back and forth between rooftops and clubs. Just when retail investors thought they could earn by lying down, Trump started teasing Powell again. On April 21, he threatened to fire the Federal Reserve Chair, scaring gold to soar and Bitcoin to follow suit; two days later, he suddenly changed his tune to "Little Powell is really nice," the dollar rebounded while Bitcoin continued to surge. This plot could make even the screenwriter of (Empresses in the Palace) call it skilled! Crypto guys got it: it turns out the independence of the Federal Reserve = Trump's mood barometer, Bitcoin's rise and fall depends entirely on the President's Twitter typing speed. The most magical part belongs to the tariff drama with China. On April 23, Trump suddenly announced a "significant reduction of 145% in tariffs," and Bitcoin immediately broke through $94,000. But upon closer inspection of the terms — China was still excluded from the tax reduction list, and the 125% tariff hammer remained unchanged. Goodness, this operation can be called "Schrodinger's good news," perfectly illustrating what it means to "say no but the body is very honest." After the price increase, it was discovered: the good news was actually for the Vietnamese factories, Bitcoin just rode the emotional wave!
After experiencing this Trump-style roller coaster, the crypto community has finally deciphered the mystery:
1. The news is the ultimate leverage, a single tweet can make Bitcoin fluctuate by $5000 in a day, all MACD, RSI are just little brothers;
2. The dual explosion of long and short positions, when 75 countries welcome tax reductions, workers in Vietnamese shoe factories are losing their jobs due to a 46% tariff; the coexistence of good and bad news is the ultimate form of the dealer harvesting profits;
3. Bitcoin's dual personality, it is both a safe-haven gold during the Fed's disputes and a risk-on asset during tariff easing, the split personality level is comparable to Musk's speculation in Dogecoin.
Now looking at Bitcoin's high of $94,000, this retail investor can't help but recite a poem:
"Tariffs suspended for ninety days, Bitcoin surges to ninety thousand peak.
Both long and short positions are liquidated, and Trump happily collects the traffic money.
Next time you see the words "tariff," it's advisable to check if your contract leverage is ≤1x, and whether there are safety nets installed on the rooftop, after all — under Trump's Twitter governance, Bitcoin is not digital gold, but a presidential special offer for jumping-off experience vouchers.
