Recently, there's an issue worth the crypto community's serious consideration—political upheavals in the United States that could actually impact your account more than many people think.



Let's start with the background. The U.S. Supreme Court is currently reviewing a controversial ruling: whether a $200 billion tariff policy, implemented by a certain politician under the pretext of a "national emergency," exceeds presidential authority. This isn't an academic debate; it's a real economic major event.

What happens if they lose the case? The U.S. government would have to forgo expected tariff revenues of hundreds of billions of dollars and pay billions in compensation to affected companies. In plain terms, it's like a trader taking on an over-leveraged position—ultimately having to admit losses and cover the margin.

What does this mean for the crypto market? First, look at the current situation. The U.S. trade system has become quite complex—new tax provisions are so numerous that ordinary consumers are effectively bearing an additional 16.8% tax burden. This policy environment's uncertainty will directly trigger market risk aversion.

Historical experience shows that whenever major policy uncertainties arise in the U.S., mainstream cryptocurrencies tend to experience noticeable volatility, with smaller coins often fluctuating even more. The logic is straightforward: risk assets are among the first to be sold off, and investors naturally seek to hedge.

The key point is that many participants in the crypto space tend to overlook these macro-level shocks. If you don't understand the chain reactions that such policy changes could trigger, your positions could be caught off guard by these "big hammer" events at any time. Therefore, taking the time to understand these underlying logics is crucial for risk management.

Here comes the tariff issue again, this time there's really no way out Really, once the Supreme Court rules against us, how much blood will the Federal Reserve have to shed, our coins will definitely be hammered this round As for small coins, risk assets are the first to go. Don't get washed out before you even realize it—that's the most heartbreaking part

On-chain data shows that a reversal in US policy expectations usually triggers large outflows of stablecoins... If this case indeed loses in court, the liquidity pressure will be quite interesting.

Uh... Is it that American approach again? Every time there's a political upheaval, the coin prices go like a roller coaster. My altcoin portfolio has already been beaten up enough. --- Will tariffs really cause a market crash? It feels like public opinion is just scaring people. --- 16.8% hidden tax burden... No wonder consumers are bottom-fishing in crypto; at least coins can still move quickly. --- If the Supreme Court loses the case, will the US government really pay compensation? That might actually bring in liquidity. Don't always think in terms of shorting. --- I've known for a long time that small coins are volatile. The question is, how not to get liquidated in this uncertainty? Have you set your stop-losses, everyone? --- Here comes the usual rhetoric of "understanding the underlying logic can make you money"... Honestly, no one can predict US decisions; it's mostly gambler's psychology. --- Wait, do policy risks really affect BTC, or are only those small coins being weeded out as retail fodder?

Another wave of macro shocks... This time it's the courts unable to resolve the tariff issue, and our coins are going to take a hit. Honestly, there's no time to enjoy the show; we have to keep an eye on our positions. A historical pattern that folds... Every time US politics stir up trouble, small coins explode first. Don't say I didn't warn you; those who need to cut losses should do so early. Once the court ruling comes down, volatility is certain; those who transfer risk in advance are smart. This time, the tariff policy suspense feels like risk aversion is about to rise. Leverage positions are about to go through another round of bloodshed. I believe in your holdings; America's "state of emergency" is our margin call alert. Policy uncertainty hits hardest; small coins should have been bearish long ago. The macro aspect is really easy to overlook, and then the account just... disappears.

Damn, is this wave going to crash again? My small coins are plunging wildly. Earned for a few months and now have to give it all back, damn. Wait, what's the probability of losing the lawsuit regarding tariffs...
