The UK economic warning has sounded. According to foreign media reports, Trump's tariff policies are triggering a chain reaction, and the UK faces a potential recession.

Such macroeconomic variables often stir up waves in the crypto market. When traditional finance falls into uncertainty, investors' risk-averse sentiment tends to seek an outlet. BTC's role as digital gold has been repeatedly validated, ETH carries expectations for on-chain application prospects, and some more specialized assets like DUSK attract participants interested in privacy protocols and niche market tracks.

In the short term, tariff issues may continue to shake market sentiment. But in the long run, crypto assets as a global, non-sovereign store of value might become one of the tools to hedge against risks in a single economy. Will this wave of adjustment mark the beginning of the next opportunity, or is it worth paying close attention to?

ETH-0.71%

Here we go again. Every time there's a macro event, do we have to buy the dip... But speaking of privacy coins like DUSK, does anyone really care? BTC is stable, but ETH doesn't seem to have much of a story right now. Recession risk ≠ opportunity. It depends on whether your holdings can hold out first.

Here we go again. Every time big news comes out, the crypto world has to stir up some excitement... Wait, can small coins like DUSK really withstand risks? I think it's mainly BTC playing a role here. When macro conditions get chaotic, retail investors start to go all-in. This trick is getting old. When tariffs escalate, is it actually a good time to get on board? Not sure. The UK economy is about to collapse, but we crypto enthusiasts are actually laughing? That's a bit ironic. This time is different. It really feels like a change is coming. Just wait and see. In the short term, it's still mainly watching and observing.

The devaluation of the British pound shows typical symptoms of macro liquidity tightening, according to medical records. The narratives about BTC and ETH are always brought up, but the real question is—can small tokens like DUSK really absorb the outflow of funds? It is recommended to regularly review trading depth.
