Trump launched the so-called "Liberation Day" tariff war on April 2, 2025, triggering retaliatory measures from multiple countries. It is widely considered a major event that will change the global economic landscape, with significance almost comparable to the "Nixon Shock" of gold-dollar decoupling in August 1971. Both domestic and international Chinese-speaking worlds, whether from China's interests or the United States' interests, generally hold a strongly critical attitude towards Trump's policy. As for myself, focusing on digital assets and Web3 technology, I am more concerned about the position and development trends of the crypto and blockchain industry under this policy. However, due to my unfamiliarity with economic and trade issues and lack of understanding of the United States, I still need to consult experts. Therefore, I once again invited Dr. Shao Qing to discuss this topic.
