Brothers and sisters, Trump is trending again, and this time he dropped a bombshell: he wants to raise tariffs on Chinese goods to 245%!!
You heard me right, it’s 245%, not 145%.
My first reaction is: Is Trump going to start a 'full-blown fight'? The U.S. is already struggling with inflation, and now he wants to play Trade War 2.0? Who can withstand this…

👊【What signals?】
Once this news broke, U.S. stocks took a plunge, and the crypto world followed suit anxiously. You might think the market hasn't fully reacted yet, but those who understand know that this kind of news usually indicates 'the negatives haven't fully been released':
Tax increases will exacerbate global supply chain tensions
Inflation continues to rise, and the Federal Reserve dares not cut interest rates
The dollar remains high, and risk assets continue to be suppressed
Do you think this is a China-U.S. trade issue? In essence, it’s the continuation of dollar hegemony and the beginning of election maneuvering.

🧠【How to understand this 'false negative'?】
Whenever old Trump makes a statement, the market reacts violently, typical 'news-driven trading':
1️⃣ First create panic, suppress prices
2️⃣ Harvest leverage, clean up floating capital
3️⃣ Wait until everyone has sold at a loss, capital begins to layout the next wave
Does this method feel familiar? Don’t we see it every day in the crypto world? 😮💨
🪙【What impact does it have on the crypto world?】
Although Trump doesn’t mention cryptocurrencies, every time he escalates a trade war, it’s a 'major cleansing' of the global market. And every time dollar liquidity tightens, the crypto world is the first place to be 'squeezed out.'
But on the other hand, after the storm, the opportunity begins. After all, crypto assets have never been meant to serve 'market stability,' but to seek freedom amidst global financial imbalances.
📌【How am I operating?】
These past few days I have continued to dollar-cost average into BTC, and I’m positioning low in SOL and ETH. Although the market looks bad, it’s not about the price; it’s about the logic behind it:
✔️ The harsher the policy intervention, the more survival value free assets have
✔️ The more volatile traditional finance is, the easier it is for capital to flow into high-elasticity markets
Don’t be scared by the surface; the real black swan hasn’t arrived yet. When it does, you’ll be grateful you haven’t left the market yet.

💬 To sum it up in one sentence:
Trump's call for tax increases is not just a trade war; it is also a financial war. If you are afraid, you've already lost. You may choose not to participate, but you must understand it.
What do you think? Is it a true market negative, or is it another harvesting script from old Trump? Feel free to discuss in the comments; let’s analyze it together!
