The Understanding King’s Tariff Bomb is Coming! Is Bitcoin 'Digital Gold' or a Coffin Decoration?
1. Current policy status of the understanding king (2025)
Tariff policy:
If the understanding king is back in power, it is necessary to verify whether he fulfills his campaign promises (e.g., imposing a 60% tariff on Chinese goods).
Current public information shows that tariffs have been raised for some industries (e.g., electric vehicles, semiconductors), but crypto mining machines have not yet been included on the list.
Key developments:
In March 2025, the U.S. Trade Representative's Office (USTR) initiated a review of 'hardware related to digital currencies,' but no clear taxation has been defined yet (Source: USTR announcement 2025-027).
Customs enforcement:
CBP upgraded the ACE system in 2024, but delays in customs clearance for crypto mining machines still exist (average delay of 7 days, an increase of 2 days from 2023).
