Policy developments to watch: The US government plans to introduce a tariff revenue distribution scheme, which is reportedly expected to distribute related funds to the public as early as mid-year.

The logic behind this is actually simple. The government intends to transfer tariff revenues directly to households, effectively injecting liquidity into the consumption side. In the short term, this can indeed stimulate people's purchasing power and consumption enthusiasm. But there is a hidden concern—if the supply side cannot keep up, the additional purchasing power might instead push prices higher. After all, ample liquidity combined with tight supply can bring inflationary pressures to the surface.

For investors, such policy signals are worth monitoring. Liquidity, inflation expectations, and government policy orientation are all important variables influencing asset allocation.

Another new trick to harvest the little guys? Giving money to create inflation again, played out.

It's the same old trick of pumping money to stimulate consumption... Supply can't keep up with inflation, and it's taking off directly.

Here comes the old trick of cutting leeks again. It sounds nice to say it's about giving out money, but actually it's just creating inflation expectations. The more liquidity there is, the crazier prices become. This logic is old and well-known; do they really think retail investors are that clueless? Distributing money mid-year? I bet five bucks that by the time the money heats up, half of it will be eaten up by inflation. The key still depends on when the supply chain truly recovers; otherwise, it's all just talk. If this market moves as expected, institutional players in the crypto space would have already adjusted their positions. We're just small retail investors still watching the show.

Here comes the usual pump and dump, politely called "profit distribution," but it's just flooding the market. Wait, if supply can't keep up with rising prices, isn't that just our common tactic—enjoy the short-term gains and pay the long-term price? Liquidity... needs to be closely monitored. This is indeed a critical moment for heavy positions.

Here comes the usual pump and dump, liquidity injections, inflation expectations... They sound so convincing, but in the end, isn't it just the common people who pay the price? When supply can't keep up, they just print money to flood the market with liquidity. I've seen this trick too many times. Spot trading still needs to be hedged with futures for stability. Mid-year money distribution? I think it's most likely just political showmanship. If it actually materializes, getting half would already be a win. Short-term stimulus to consumption is fine, but the real opportunity lies in arbitrage between inflation trading and policy expectations. What impact will this round of operations have on on-chain assets? Is anyone watching the trends in DeFi lending?

It's the old trick of flooding the market to stimulate consumption again; if supply can't keep up, inflation is definitely coming.

Here we go again with this set? Sending money to stimulate consumption, then inflation eats up all the gains, we've seen this too many times. The supply not keeping up is a false issue; essentially, it's just printing money, brother. Liquidity is abundant... just listen to this word, my wallet is about to shrink again. Distributing money mid-year? Prices will probably rise again by then, giving it away for free. This wave of policy signals is worth tracking, but after all the tracking, it's still about holding coins to get through the days.
