Buffett's "Five-Minute Fix for America's Deficit" is just a metaphorical comment, not a policy, and will not be legislated.

So— it will not directly affect the price of Ethereum (ETH).

However, we can observe the macro sentiment it reflects and deduce the logic for crypto assets:

✅ 1. Does Buffett's statement have a direct impact on ETH?

No.

It is not a policy, has no chance of being legislated, and will not change the monetary supply, interest rates, fiscal stimulus, or other factors that truly affect the market.

✅ 2. But what does it indirectly reflect? (This is important)

The core of Buffett's statement is:

👉 The long-term fiscal deficit in the U.S. is too large, and the government needs stronger fiscal discipline.

What the market usually focuses on is:

① If the U.S. fiscal deficit is severe → Higher inflation risk → More inclination to increase the money supply

This is generally positive for ETH, as crypto is seen as:

An asset that resists fiat depreciation

An alternative global liquidity hedge

More limited supply (ETH is destroyed or even deflationary)

② If the deficit worsens → The Federal Reserve finds it harder to maintain high interest rates long-term → More likely to cut rates

Rate cut expectations = Upward momentum for crypto.

ETH is very sensitive to interest rates:

Rate cut → Funds flow back to risk assets → ETH & BTC benefit

Rate hike → Pressure

✅ 3. So what is the actual significance of this "Buffett news" in the market?

It will not drive the price of ETH itself,

But it reinforces the market's long-term consensus:

🔥 The dollar will continue to inflate in the future → Risk assets will absorb liquidity → ETH/BTC will benefit in the long run.

In other words:

📈 The macro outlook is generally favorable for ETH long-term, but has no direct impact in the short term.

✅ 4. What’s next for ETH? (Based on current market logic)

Short-term key drivers:

Federal Reserve rate cut of 0.25% → Slightly positive

Federal Reserve rate cut of 0.50% → Strongly positive

Continuous inflow of funds into ETH ETFs

Tokenization (RWA) narrative continues to strengthen

The surrounding ecosystem of ETH (L2, AI, EigenLayer, Restaking) is strong

Mid-term range (next 1–3 months):

Support: $2,900–3,300

Resistance: $4,000–4,300

Breakout point: $4,500

Breaking $4,500 → ETH moves towards $5,000–6,000.

🔥 In summary

Buffett's words do not affect ETH, but the worsening U.S. deficit + rate cut cycle + liquidity improvement will provide a strong foundation for ETH to rise in 2025–2026.
