$1.4 TRILLION WIPEOUT: STOCKS CRASH ON TRUMP’S TARIFF THREAT
The US Stock Market just sent a $1.4 Trillion message to the White House.
Following President Trump’s threat to impose sweeping tariffs on the EU over the Greenland dispute, Wall Street reacted with a massive sell-off, wiping out $1.4 Trillion in market capitalization globally.
Why the Panic?
Investors fear a full-blown Trade War. Tariffs mean higher costs for US companies, retaliation from Europe, and sticky inflation. The market hates uncertainty, and this geopolitical gamble is the definition of uncertainty.
The Crypto Perspective:
While Bitcoin dipped in correlation, the stock market's loss dwarfs the entire crypto correction. It highlights a critical reality: Traditional Finance (TradFi) is deeply exposed to political whims.
As the dust settles, smart money will look for assets outside the tariff war zone. Bitcoin stands ready. 🛡️

THE FOG LIFTS TODAY: BTC vs. ETH IN THE 2026 STANDOFF
Today, Jan 21, is the day the crypto market has been holding its breath for. The text of the Clarity Act is set to be released.
The Analogy:
Think of the market as a convoy driving through thick fog. We are moving slow (sideways price action) because we can't see the road rules. Today, the fog lifts.
The Contenders:
Bitcoin (The Shield): BTC is the safe play. It thrives on macro chaos (Trump Tariffs) and is already safe from regulatory scrutiny. In Q1, BTC is for capital preservation.
Ethereum (The Coil): ETH is the high-reward play. With exchange reserves at historic lows (Supply Shock), it is coiled like a spring. A positive regulatory nod today could send ETH flying, outperforming BTC percentage-wise.
The Verdict:
If the bill text is favorable towards DeFi and Staking, expect a massive rotation into Ethereum and Altcoins. If it's restrictive, Bitcoin dominance will rise as a safe haven.
Watch the news. The road is about to open. 🚦
