šŸšØU.S. court canceled Donald Trump's tariffs

Heā€™s under investigation for market manipulation

Hereā€™s how this rollercoaster will flip cryptošŸ‘‡šŸ§µ

š“¼ I was broke too, but crypto changed my life - now I want to change yours

ā˜ž 2

š“¼ On the night of May 28, 2025, a U.S. federal court officially blocked most of the trade tariffs imposed by Donald Trump earlier this year

š“¼ The court ruled that Trump overstepped his authority by invoking the 1977 IEEPA to justify wide-ranging tariffs without Congressional involvement

š“¼ It reaffirmed that the power to regulate foreign trade lies with Congress, not the President

š“¼ The ruling sent shockwaves through global markets and directly challenged the foundation of Trumpā€™s current economic agenda

ā˜ž 3

š“¼ The blocked tariffs include the ā€œLiberation Dayā€ package, announced in April, which targeted nearly 200 countries

š“¼ These included 30% tariffs on goods from China, 25% tariffs on selected imports from Mexico and Canada, and a flat 10% tariff on most global imports

š“¼ The case was brought by small businesses and attorneys general from 12 states, led by Oregonā€™s Dan Rayfield, who argued the tariffs caused economic harm to American consumers and companies

š“¼ The court agreed, stating that trade policy cannot be reshaped unilaterally by executive action

ā˜ž 4

š“¼ However, not all tariffs were nullified by the courtā€™s ruling

š“¼ The 25% tariffs on automobiles, auto parts, steel, and aluminum remain in place because they were enacted under a separate legal authority ā€” Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962

š“¼ The Trump administration has already filed an immediate appeal with the U.S. Court of International Trade

š“¼ White House spokesperson Kush Desai defended the tariffs as essential for correcting long-standing trade deficits and revitalizing American manufacturing and defense industries

ā˜ž 5

š“¼ Trumpā€™s tariff policy has evolved rapidly since his second term began in January 2025

š“¼ On February 1, he introduced 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada, and 10% on goods from China, citing drug trafficking and border control failures

š“¼ These tariffs were briefly paused on February 3, only to return stronger on March 3 - with 20% on Chinese imports and global steel and aluminum tariffs of 25%

š“¼ On April 2, Trump rolled out the largest package yet, with reciprocal tariffs up to 50% on 60 nations, triggering the sharpest two-day stock market crash in U.S. history

ā˜ž 6

š“¼ The court ruling brought a short-term boost to markets worldwide

š“¼ Asian markets surged nearly 2%, while S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures climbed around 2% overnight

š“¼ Bitcoin, which had been under strong selling pressure, rebounded from $106,800 to $108,400 within hours

š“¼ CME BTC futures volumes rose by 18%, and Binance open interest surged by $430 million, suggesting a macro-driven reaction rather than sustained bullish momentum

ā˜ž 7

š“¼ Analysts at Goldman Sachs quickly warned that the marketā€™s optimism could be short-lived

š“¼ They believe the court decision is likely to have only a temporary impact, as Trump may pursue alternative legal routes to reinstate tariffs

š“¼ This includes potentially invoking Section 301 or other emergency powers under national security justifications

š“¼ Legal experts also suggest Trump could request a stay on the ruling during the appeals process and repackage tariffs under new authorities

ā˜ž 8

š“¼ The economic fallout from these tariffs is already evident in several key indicators

š“¼ According to the Peterson Institute, U.S. households could lose up to $1,200 per year in after-tax income due to tariff-related inflation

š“¼ Brookings projects U.S. inflation could rise by 2.5% over the next 24ā€“36 months if tariffs return

š“¼ AEI uncovered serious miscalculations in tariff rates, noting that the administration based their numbers on retail prices, overstating effective tariff levels by up to 4x

ā˜ž 9

š“¼ The international response has been swift and multifaceted

š“¼ Canada imposed retaliatory tariffs of 25% on $20 billion worth of U.S. goods, with more measures pending

š“¼ China restricted access to American films and began absorbing tariff costs by reducing profit margins or pushing expenses onto U.S. buyers

š“¼ The European Union paused its countermeasures to allow for diplomatic talks, while India introduced 26% tariffs but remains open to negotiation

ā˜ž 10

š“¼ For the crypto market, this all points to increasing macro-level instability in the months ahead

š“¼ Historically, Bitcoin performs well during times of financial disorder or geopolitical conflict - as seen in 2019 during the original U.S.-China trade war

š“¼ But with the market now caught between legal uncertainty and executive unpredictability, high-leverage positions become increasingly dangerous

š“¼ If you hold speculative crypto trades with large exposure, it may be wise to trim risk or adopt protective strategies

ā˜ž 11

š“¼ While this ruling may appear to be a major setback for Trumpā€™s trade doctrine, it doesnā€™t mean the trade war is over

š“¼ In fact, without the leverage of punitive tariffs, Trump loses his most powerful negotiation tool

š“¼ That could push him to retaliate even more aggressively through alternative executive channels, especially with elections approaching

š“¼ This is why analysts refer to this moment as the beginning of another ā€œTrumpian rollercoasterā€ rather than the end of the conflict

ā˜ž 12

š“¼ Final thoughts:

š“¼ First, this is a serious blow to Trumpā€™s image as a strategic and authoritative dealmaker

š“¼ Given his combative nature and refusal to appear weak, heā€™s unlikely to let this court loss go unanswered

š“¼ Second, as Goldman Sachs warns, Trump may find alternative legal pathways to impose similar or even harsher tariffs on global partners

š“¼ In other words - this is not a conclusion, but the start of another volatile chapter where crypto will serve as both a beneficiary and a barometer of global instability
