That could be the strategy. I think Trump is just forcing the Fed’s hand a bit. How long until the Fed does an “emergency rate cut” to “calm the markets?” How long before other central banks do the same? When it happens, I have to imagine some of that additional liquidity will flow into BTC. In the meantime though, things could get really ugly.

Well that’s kind of the thing in my mind - the Fed and other centrals cutting rates is effectively money printing - they’d be saying “Value should not sit in money. Value should sit in stocks and Real Estate and mindless consumption. Saving for the future is NOT allowed.”
So on one hand Trump (likely not purposefully, but still nonetheless) is showing that stock market value is fundamentally politically captured (so why put your value there?) and the Centrals are showing that they will not allow you to use cash or treasuries to save (so why put your value there?). Perhaps a middle path emerges that really does favor large scale - NON SPECULATIVE - new entrance into bitcoin (and I guess gold too or whatever🙄)
