Official Trump (TRUMP) Dominates Crypto Market as US President Rewards Top Bagholders

On April 11, 2025, China’s State Council Tariff Commission issued an official notice announcing an increase in additional tariffs on imported US goods—from 84% to 125%. The new rate takes effect on April 12.

This move directly responds to the United States’ decision, announced on April 10, to impose a “reciprocal” 125% tariff on Chinese exports to the US.

Crypto Market Stays Calm Amid Escalating US-China Trade War

Despite escalating tensions between the world’s two largest economies, the cryptocurrency market has shown remarkable stability. Investors appear unfazed by the intensifying trade conflict.

Crypto market capitalization remains around $2.5 trillion. Bitcoin’s price holds above $81,000 after recovering 10% since April 9, when Trump announced a 90-day tariff pause, excluding tariffs on China.

According to the Chinese statement, the tariff hike follows China’s Customs Law, Tariff Law, and Foreign Trade Law. The government reaffirmed its commitment to international rules. It accused the US of violating global trade norms and called Washington’s policy “unilateral bullying.”

Notably, China warned that it would not respond to further tariff increases from the US, arguing that American goods have already lost their competitiveness in the Chinese market at the current tariff level.

“Given that US exports to China are no longer market-viable under the current tariff rate, China will not respond further if the US continues to raise tariffs on Chinese goods,” the statement said.

The tariff dispute is not new. Since 2018, the US and China have imposed retaliatory tariffs on each other. Key sectors affected include agriculture, tech, and energy.

The latest hike pushes tariffs to a record 125%. Economists warn this could disrupt global supply chains, raise prices, and add pressure to inflation in both nations.

Bitcoin miners also feel the impact as mining machine prices surge.

China’s tariff hike sends a strong message about its tough stance in trade negotiations. While the crypto market remains stable for now, analysts urge investors to monitor upcoming developments—especially any potential response from the US.

If no resolution is reached, the ongoing standoff could trigger a broader economic fallout. The world is now watching to see whether the trade war will de-escalate or further entrench the divide between the two economic superpowers.

Michael Saylor shared an ambitious proposal for the US government to accumulate a vast Bitcoin reserve that he claims could generate up to $81 trillion in wealth by 2045.

The outspoken Bitcoin (BTC) advocate and co-founder of Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) shared the blueprint during the White House Crypto Summit.

Michael Saylor’s Bitcoin Accumulation Blueprint For Trump’s Government

Syalor’s plan, presented as a blueprint for economic dominance, calls for the nation to acquire between 5% and 25% of the Bitcoin network over the next decade through consistent, programmatic daily purchases.

“I shared this at the White House Digital Assets Summit,” Salor confirmed.

Saylor’s vision rests on the idea that Bitcoin will appreciate significantly over time due to its fixed supply and growing global adoption.

Under his plan, the US government would begin accumulating Bitcoin in 2025 and continue until 2035, by which point 99% of all Bitcoin will have been mined.

“Acquire 5-25% of the Bitcoin network in trust for the nation through consistent, programmatic daily purchases between 2025 and 2035, when 99% of all BTC will have been issued,” read an excerpt in the blueprint.

Following this strategy, the US could acquire up to a quarter (25%) of the total supply, locking in a dominant position in the global financial system. Saylor argued that such a move would have a transformative economic impact.

Saylor estimates that the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve could generate between $16 trillion and $81 trillion in value for the US Treasury by 2045. Notably, this prediction hinges on the scale of adoption and Bitcoin’s future price appreciation.

The reserve would act as a long-term store of value for the nation, offering an alternative to traditional monetary assets and providing a powerful hedge against inflation.

Also, Saylor said the strategy would secure America’s financial future, strengthen the dollar, reduce national debt, and cement the country’s status as a global economic leader.

Saylor Discourages US Government From Selling Bitcoin Holdings

One of the most striking aspects of Saylor’s proposal is his assertion that the US should never sell its Bitcoin holdings. Instead, he envisions the SBR generating at least $10 trillion annually by 2045 through appreciation and other financial mechanisms.

He claims this would create a self-sustaining economic engine capable of addressing national debt concerns. It would also position the US to fund technological advancements, critical infrastructure, and social programs without increasing taxes or borrowing excessively.

Beyond buying Bitcoin, Saylor’s broader digital asset framework includes sweeping regulatory changes designed to position the US as the epicenter of the digital currency wave.

He advocates for clear, supportive regulations that encourage innovation while ensuring market integrity.

“Hostile and unfair tax policies on crypto miners, holders, and exchanges hinder industry growth and should be eliminated, along with arbitrary, capricious, and discriminatory regulations,” Saylor added.

His plan divides digital assets into four categories—digital tokens, digital securities, digital currencies, and digital commodities. Each of these, he indicated, serves a specific function within the economy.

Notably, if the US government heeds Saylor’s 25% Bitcoin supply purchase, it would hold 5.25 million BTC. This would be more than the 1 million BTC (5% of the supply) Wyoming Senator Cynthia Lummis proposed in the Bitcoin Act introduced in August 2024.
