Tron (TRX) founder #Justin Sun has reportedly taken a huge financial hit after his investment in World Liberty Financial (WLFI) — a DeFi project linked to US President #donald Trump — went terribly wrong 😳.
🔥 What Happened?
According to blockchain analytics platform Bubblemaps, Justin Sun has been blacklisted by WLFI, leaving his tokens locked and causing a $60 million loss in value over the past 3 months 📉.
🧊 “Sun is still blacklisted by WLFI, and the value of its locked tokens has dropped by $60 million in 3 months… absolutely brutal.” — Bubblemaps (X)
🧨 The Asset Freeze Drama
📅 September: Sun transferred $9M worth of WLFI tokens to another address
🚫 WLFI Team Response: Assets frozen
⚠️ Reason Given: Alleged price manipulation
🗣️ Sun’s Reaction: Called the tokens “sacred and inviolable” and demanded equal rights
Despite public protests, WLFI refused to lift the freeze ❌.
🤯 A Shocking Turn of Events
This fallout surprised many in the crypto community, especially since Justin Sun was one of the strongest supporters of Trump’s crypto initiatives 🇺🇸💰.
Yet, more than three months later, Sun still appears to be unwelcome in the WLFI ecosystem.

Trade wars are no longer just political headlines — they are market-moving events.
With Donald Trump once again pushing strong tariff policies, global markets are reacting, and crypto investors are paying attention.
But beyond the noise, an important question emerges:
How do Trump’s tariffs affect Bitcoin and the broader crypto market?
A Simple Look at Trump’s Tariff Strategy
Trump’s tariff approach focuses on:
Increasing taxes on imported goods, especially from China
Protecting domestic industries
Reducing reliance on foreign supply chains
While the goal is economic protection, the side effects often ripple across global markets.
Why Tariffs Create Market Uncertainty
Tariffs usually lead to:
Higher production costs
Increased consumer prices
Inflation concerns
Stock market volatility
When traditional markets become unstable, investors naturally start looking for alternative assets.
That’s where crypto enters the conversation.
Why Crypto Often Gains Attention During Trade Tensions
1. Inflation Concerns Boost Bitcoin’s Appeal
Higher tariffs can push prices up.
Bitcoin, with its fixed supply, is often viewed as a hedge against inflation — similar to digital gold.
2. Trade Wars Highlight the Value of Decentralization
Tariffs remind the world how fragile centralized systems can be.
Crypto offers:
Borderless transactions
Financial neutrality
Independence from political decisions
This makes crypto more attractive during periods of global tension.
3. Emerging Markets May Increase Crypto Adoption
Countries affected by tariffs may face currency pressure or reduced trade activity.
In these situations, Bitcoin and stablecoins often see increased usage as people look for more stable financial tools.
Are There Risks for Crypto?
Yes — and they matter.
Short-term uncertainty can cause:
Price volatility
Temporary sell-offs
Stronger fiat currencies putting pressure on crypto
However, history shows that long-term adoption often grows during economic stress.
What Crypto Investors Are Watching Closely
As trade tensions rise, smart investors are monitoring:
Bitcoin dominance
Stablecoin activity
Inflation data
On-chain volume from emerging markets
These signals often reveal where the market sentiment is heading.
Final Thoughts
Trump’s tariffs may challenge traditional markets, but for crypto, they could serve as a reminder of why decentralized finance exists in the first place.
Periods of uncertainty don’t just create fear — they create opportunity for innovation and adoption.$TRUMP

With markets now firmly in the home straight for the run into year-end, the crypto sector remains in a daze following its October meltdown.
After being one of the best-performing assets during the first nine months of 2025, with Bitcoin up over 35% at its October peak of $126,272, it is now down 5.25% year-to-date (YTD) at its current price of $88,480. Ethereum has suffered a similar fall from grace. At its current price of $3005, it is down 9.80% YTD, a stark contrast to being up almost 50% in August.
The overhang from this correction has left the outlook for Bitcoin and Ethereum uncertain, a sentiment perhaps best illustrated by the conflicting views offered recently by two research strategists at the boutique United States (US) firm Fundstrat Global Advisors.
Analysts split on crypto outlook as uncertainty grows
Tom Lee, the well-known co-founder and head of research, remains publicly bullish. He predicts that Bitcoin could reach $250,000 within months and calls Ether at roughly $3000 ‘grossly undervalued’. Notably, Lee is also the chairman of BitMine, a company aiming to become the world’s leading Ethereum treasury.
However, in a recent internal client note, Sean Farrell – Fundstrat’s head of digital asset strategy – caused a stir by outlining a more cautious short-term view. Farrell sees Bitcoin falling to $60,000 – $65,000 in the first half of 2026, citing risk management concerns and the potential for further drawdowns.
Tom Lee explained the disagreement by stating that the views reflected different mandates: his own long-term macro bullishness versus Farrell’s near-term tactical caution.
Our view is more in line with Farrell’s. This is based on our technical view outlined here two weeks ago (and refreshed below), reinforced by the soft price action overnight as Bitcoin recoiled from the $90,536 high it hit earlier in the session, despite a supportive backdrop of higher equities, rising gold prices, and a US dollar.
Bitcoin technical analysis
The 17.5% rally from the 21 November $8053 ‘capitulation low’ to the recent $94,652 high displays corrective qualities, which implies the rally is countertrend (Wave IV within the Elliott Wave framework).
This suggests that while Bitcoin remains below the $95,000 – $100,000 resistance zone, the risks are for the downtrend to resume and for a retest and break of the $8053 low (for Wave V), towards the Liberation Day lows at $75,000.
It is important to note that if Bitcoin first sees a sustained break above resistance at $95,000 – $100,000 and then above the 200-day moving average (MA) currently at $108,000, it will shift the landscape in favour of a retest of the $126,272 high.

Ethereum technical analysis
The 33% rally from the 21 November $2620 ‘capitulation low’ to the recent $3477 high displays corrective qualities, which implies the rally is countertrend (Wave IV within the Elliott Wave framework).
This suggests that while Ethereum remains below the recent $3477 high reinforced by the 200-day MA currently at $3600, the risks are for the downtrend to resume and for a retest and break of the $2620 low (for Wave V), towards $2250.
It is important to note that if Ethereum first sees a sustained break above resistance at $3500 – $3600, it would shift the landscape initially towards a test of $4000, before a possible rally towards the $4750 – $4950 resistance zone.
