This game of chess concerns sovereignty and control, and future negotiations will impact America's tangible influence in the region.

Early computers could only do one thing at a time: cracking codes, processing census data, calculating ballistic trajectories. It was much later that they became shareable, programmable machines. The internet started off as a small peer-to-peer research network (ARPANET), and only later evolved into a global platform, enabling millions to collaborate in a shared environment. Artificial intelligence follows the same path: early systems were narrow expert models, built for a single field (chess engines, recommendation systems, spam filters), and only later evolved into general-purpose models that could work across domains, be fine-tuned for new tasks, and serve as a shared foundation for others to build applications on. Technology always begins in a narrow or single-user mode,

According to Deep Tide TechFlow, on November 18, Bitget will hold a VIP sharing session themed "Grasping the Pulse of Q4: From Macro Trends to Practical Strategies." In this session, Aaron, a representative from the Bitget Research Institute, pointed out that the current market's base interest rate remains in the range of 3.75%-4%, and the Fed is at a critical crossroads in its interest rate reduction path. Stopping the balance sheet reduction in December and potentially implementing further relief policies will become important variables driving macro liquidity. In addition, the overall trading volume in the market has significantly declined recently, while the market capitalization of stablecoins has rapidly increased over the past three months, reflecting a mismatch in the supply and demand relationship of encryption assets, or indicating that the market is about to welcome a phase of buying the dip opportunities. The guest "Bitcoin Chess" believes that the macro trend in Q4 mainly depends on whether the Fed continues to cut interest rates, and there is still uncertainty in the current assessment. The overall direction in Q4 remains focused on fluctuations.

Original author: Sam Broner Compiled | Odaily Planet Daily (@OdailyChina) Translator | Ethan (@ethanzhang\_web3) Traditional finance is gradually embracing stablecoins, and their market size is continuously expanding. Stablecoins have become the optimal solution for building global fintech due to their three core advantages: high speed, nearly zero cost, and high programmability. The transition between old and new technological paradigms means that the logic of business operations will undergo fundamental reconstruction; this process will also give rise to new types of risks. After all, the "self-custody model" valued in digital bearer assets (rather than deposit accounts) is fundamentally different from the banking system that has been in place for hundreds of years. ![Chess looks 3 steps: How far are stablecoins from normalization to becoming currency?](https://piccdn.0daily.com/202506/

This upgrade brought significant optimizations in account abstraction, Layer 2 (L2) scaling, and validator mechanisms, allowing Ethereum's deflationary properties to return. Even more exciting is that the ETH price quickly broke through $2,200 after the upgrade, currently reported at $2,203.91, with a daily increase of 7.42%, sweeping away the previous market's dullness. However, behind the intertwining of technological breakthroughs and market enthusiasm, Ethereum still faces challenges such as the L2 "parasitic" effect, competitive pressure, and narrative fog.

Trump's "softening" truth: the dual dilemma of inflation and Supply Chain Trump's statement this time is by no means a spur of the moment; rather, it is a concentrated reflection of internal and external pressures. In March 2025, the core CPI in the United States rose by 2.8% year-on-year, and the price of used cars skyrocketed by 18%. The additional 145% tariffs imposed on China on April 10 further drove up prices, leading to an average annual expenditure increase of about $5,200 for American middle-class families. If tariffs continue to escalate, inflation may exceed the threshold for Federal Reserve interest rate hikes, severely impacting Trump's "Tax Cut 2.0" plan and his prospects for re-election. A deeper crisis arises from the Supply Chain. On April 11, the United States exempted tariffs on 20 categories of Chinese goods, including smartphones and chips, because 75% of the global chip packaging and testing capacity is concentrated in China, and the U.S. F-35 fighter jet is highly dependent on Chinese rare earths. The Trump team gradually realized that forcibly "decoupling" would not only fail to weaken China but could instead cause the U.S. technology industry to regress by a decade. Amid high inflation pressures.

Trump hinted at dropping tariffs on China to ease inflation pressures and win votes, while China is strategically positioning itself in rare earths, technology, and the Supply Chain, with global dynamics in 2025 drawing significant attention. Facing pressure in an election year, Trump seeks political space by adjusting tariff policies, while China robustly counters through strategies involving energy, rare earths, technology, and a diversified trade network. The future situation remains uncertain, necessitating attention to agricultural product prices, Digital Money, and changes in US-EU relations.

Trump may have deliberately created a recession to force the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates and ease debt pressure. Wall Street's view is that this is a strategy of "financial repression" aimed at changing the economic landscape. Policies lead to market turmoil, but success may set the stage for long-term growth. The challenge is Trump's interest rate policy game with the Fed amid the debt crisis. This strategy may reshape the economic structure, and the short-term risk is high, but the market may have opportunities in the future.
