The recent hot topic in the crypto circle is still "How will the market move," but the real hidden danger has been brewing for a while—The U.S. Supreme Court is about to rule on Trump's global tariff policy. On the surface, this seems like a policy issue, but the actual impact could be much more severe than market expectations.



Let's start with the numbers: The tariff system implemented under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act contributes approximately $30 billion to the U.S. treasury each month, amounting to nearly $350 billion annually. This revenue is crucial to the U.S. budget. However, the current market consensus is that this might be overblown—the probability of the Supreme Court ruling the policy illegal has been priced in at 76%.

If the ruling is unfavorable, the consequences could cascade like dominoes. First, fiscal revenue would evaporate directly, creating a $350 billion black hole that needs to be filled. Plus, there could be potential retroactive refunds, with the total gap possibly reaching the trillion-dollar level—an existential blow to any country's finances.

What can the Treasury do next? It can only issue debt aggressively. JPMorgan's analysis shows that if the Treasury increases bond issuance, long-term U.S. Treasury yields will rise significantly, and the bond curve will become steeper. What does this mean? Market liquidity will be drained.

Some say Trump has alternative options, such as using Section 122 or the 301 investigation as substitutes. Sounds good, but these tools have inherent limitations—Section 122's maximum tax rate is only 15%, which can't cover the current gap; the 301 investigation process is too lengthy for quick emergency responses.

Market misjudgments are also worth cautioning. Many believe that canceling tariffs could be a positive, as corporate costs would decrease. But this logic ignores a core fact: this liquidity isn't just shifting; it’s truly disappearing. When U.S. Treasury yields soar, funds will withdraw en masse from other asset classes, including cryptocurrencies. This isn't a simple "move from A to B," but a systemic market contraction.

The market is betting on a 76% probability, but the true consensus mechanism has failed. Liquidity disappearance ≠ asset reallocation, and this difference determines everything. Wait, do you really understand the data model behind this round of shocks? Trillion-level gaps, soaring US bond yields—this is exactly the process of validation nodes losing incentives—systemic. Once the tariff violation ruling is implemented, the US debt side will directly start to bleed. Stop talking about stories of decreasing corporate costs—that's superficial. The real chain is: liquidity is drained → crypto markets lose vitality → overall shrinkage. The data is right here. So, is the crypto circle still discussing market trends? Wake up, the macro risk chain has long been connected.

Here we go again, a bunch of people are still guessing the market, not realizing that the US debt bomb has been counting down for a while. The real danger is the disappearance of liquidity... So, will it be that the coins don't fall, but rather a situation where even US bonds can't be saved?

yo wait, so you're telling me the liquidity just *vanishes*? that's not how most people read it lmao... they're all celebrating tariff cancellation like it's some kind of bullish catalyst when really the whole pie's getting smaller. mempool about to get real interesting when yield curve inverts like this ngl

Wait, so the logic is that when US bond yields rise, cryptocurrencies have to follow suit? Then how do you explain during the Federal Reserve's rate-cutting cycle... It seems like the only solution is to rely on issuing bonds to fill the gaps. A trillion-dollar black hole, no joke. How long would it take to fill that?

Damn, I need to think this through carefully... Liquidity truly disappears rather than just shifting positions, now that's the real killer move.

ngl, this is the liquidation cascade everyone's too busy shitposting to notice. $3.5T disappearing = treasuries explode = btc gets rekt. people copium-ing about tariff removal being bullish lmao, complete alpha leak. this isn't reallocation, it's systematic drain. watch the yield curve steepen and everything else gets liquidated. we're cooked if this ruling goes south fr

Wait, are you serious about the liquidity disappearing... It seems many people are still fantasizing that tariff removal is a positive, completely not understanding what the surge in US Treasury yields really means.
