The U.S. Supreme Court's ruling on the legality of Trump's tariff policy has been postponed again. As of mid-January, the Supreme Court justices have yet to make a final decision, and the market is eagerly awaiting the "final verdict" next week. Based on current information, the ruling may be announced during the court session on Tuesday or Wednesday, but the exact timing remains uncertain.



This suspense alone is enough to shake the market. In the current absence of a ruling, global capital markets have already shown noticeable declines—Nasdaq down 1%, S&P 500 down 0.6%, and the semiconductor sector experiencing a 1.1% drop. Consumer stocks performed poorly, with leading companies like Lululemon and Mattel seeing their stock prices decline, and traditional blue-chip stocks like Stanley Black & Decker giving back previous gains.

The court controversy centers on the "Liberty Day" tariff plan. This plan is scheduled to launch on April 2nd and will impose tariffs ranging from 10% to 50% on various imported goods. During previous court debates, several justices expressed doubts about the legality of this policy—particularly concerns over Trump citing the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act to bypass Congress procedures.

If the final ruling is a loss, the potential economic consequences could be quite severe. Industry estimates suggest that if the tariff policy is deemed unconstitutional, it could trigger a tax refund controversy exceeding $130 billion. For the Trump team, this would be the most serious legal challenge since returning to the White House.

Digital assets such as ETH, ZEC, and ZEN are increasingly correlated with traditional financial markets. Whenever macroeconomic policy faces significant uncertainty, the crypto markets tend to fluctuate accordingly. Investors should closely monitor the final outcome of this legal case, as it could have profound implications for the global financial landscape.
ETH-2,34%
ZEC-5,19%

延期 again? I've been on edge these days Waiting for the ruling to be finalized, gotta see how the crypto market reacts The possibility of a 130 billion tax rebate is so high, the market has already panicked If this time it truly violates the constitution, Trump's team is probably going to suffer heavy losses If the tariff policy can't be sorted out, how can the crypto market stay healthy? Every time the Supreme Court delays, my positions start to sweat I've already bought a parachute, just waiting for Tuesday or Wednesday Just come on, justices, the suspense is too much to handle I heard the semiconductor sector has already fallen so badly, there might still be hope ahead If this thing reverses, ETH will take off directly

Another delay? This suspense is really intense, my coins are almost scared away. --- 130 billion in tax refunds? Oh my god, if that's true, the market will crash. --- Honestly, tariffs impact the crypto world more than stocks. Everyone is waiting for this verdict. --- The Supreme Court's speed is really something; at critical moments, they drop the ball. --- When will the justices make a decision? I can't hold this position through these fluctuations anymore. --- Once the tariffs on Liberation Day are announced, ETH is probably going to plunge again. Policy uncertainty like this is the most annoying. --- It feels like this time might really go off the rails. The many doubts from the justices are not without reason. --- It's purely politicized now. Who cares about legality? The market will just fall first and ask questions later. --- Wait, if this is unconstitutional, I’ll have to change my trading plan. Can someone give me a definite answer? --- By the way, crypto and US stocks are now really tied together; there's no way to isolate them.

Waiting again? This suspense is killing me. My coins have turned green from the scare. Once tariffs are finalized, who will pay for the 130 billion tax rebate? In the end, it will just lead to a market dump. The Supreme Court justices are dragging their feet, which is really frustrating. If this wave is truly unconstitutional, will ETH still rise or continue to fall? I need to reduce my holdings to protect myself. It feels like every time traditional finance trembles, the crypto market suffers too. It's really annoying.

Another delay? Is this Supreme Court Justice just stalling? --- $130 billion in tax refunds... If this really happens, the crypto market will crash. --- Waiting for the ruling, currently in a bullish frenzy. --- I just want to ask, when will it be decided? The suspense is killing me. --- When the tariff storm hits, will ETH drop? Let's observe first. --- Serious economic consequences, huh? Should I buy the dip now or run away? --- Why haven't the justices voted yet? That's the real uncertainty. --- A 1% drop is nothing; we'll see the true picture once the ruling is out. --- Traditional finance is crippled, but the crypto world is being blamed—typical. --- Launching on April 2nd... starting to panic now, this is ridiculous.

Postponed again? This group of judges is really slow, the market has been kept on hold. Wait, the 130 billion tax rebate storm? If that really happens, I’ll be crying over my positions. The key is that ETH is plunging along with the US stocks, classic case. Waiting eagerly for Tuesday and Wednesday, and maybe they'll say "postponed again due to unforeseen circumstances."

Oh wow, this suspense is really intense, the market is terrified The judges are dragging their feet, and we crypto enthusiasts are suffering along $130 billion in tax refunds? That's nonsense, who will take the loss then? The key is we have to wait until Tuesday or Wednesday to find out, who can handle that? The crypto market is about to dance along with traditional finance in this wave
