In Washington, when the president of the United States says he's going to make a statement about the Department of Defense, the world assumes he's talking about war or peace. But when the president is Donald Trump, the room turns into a political casino, and the first sentence can send Bitcoin soaring by $1,000 or plummet by $10,000.
Tuesday at 9 PM Cairo time. 2 PM Washington time. Trump will stand behind a podium. It won't matter what he says: New planes? War with China? A wall on the moon? What matters is that the market will translate his words into red and green candles faster than a live interpreter.
In crypto, statements are not politics, but liquidity. If Trump hints at military strength, traders will see it as a threat, causing gold to jump and Bitcoin to run. If he says the defense budget is strong, the market will translate this into a weak dollar, and speculators will flock to crypto like soldiers in their trenches.
The funny thing is that the market doesn't read scripts or analyze strategies. It's just a hysterical dancer, swaying to Trump's voice, whether he says "bombing" or "cakes." At one point, we might see a green candle longer than the Pentagon, then it shrinks, just as Trump's popularity dwindles after the election.
As usual, Wall Street will act like a rescue team, first confused, then collapsing, then getting back up again to confirm that the president is still alive and hasn't tweeted something even worse. The VIX will celebrate, jumping here, falling there, and everyone will applaud because the show goes on.
In the crypto world, the statement will become a global meme, with images of Trump in military uniform, "To the moon" comments, and predictions that blockchain is America's secret weapon. Perhaps an influencer will come out and declare: "Buy Bitcoin!"
In the end, everyone will discover that the Defense Ministry's speech wasn't a defense of the Earth, but rather of the stock market. And that the world's most powerful army remains hostage to a chart that changes by the second.
Trump speaks... markets fluctuate... and Bitcoin smirks as if it knows that its true defense and interests lie not in missiles but in an encrypted wallet without a private key.
