President Trump dropped a shocker Thursday, warning the U.S. may be forced to refund a staggering $149 trillion in tariff revenue after a Supreme Court ruling stripped his tariff authority. The announcement has set off alarm bells on Wall Street, with FX strategists now pricing in an immediate 10% correction in equities. However, institutional crypto desks are already hedged for the volatility—many in the DeFi corridor are interpreting this massive refund obligation as an inflationary catalyst that could drive Bitcoin and top alts like BNB to new all-time highs before the FSA’s next policy meeting.

The Supreme Court ruled key tariffs unlawful in February 2026, and now the administration must start processing repayments to affected importers. “It really pisses me off,” he added, referring to the potentialrefunds, per Yahoo Finance.

Earlier this month, Trump said he plans to raise tariffs on cars and trucks from the European Union to 25%, per a post from his Truth Social. However, the tariffs were hitting US companies harder than other countries, signaling that the US President may not have considered the implications of the tariffs on US businesses. Furthermore, Trump said back in January he plans to use any alternative tariff powers at his disposal after the Supreme Court rule against him.
