In the future, product iterations and ecosystem development across platforms will determine their user attraction and retention rates.

【Chain Wen】Recently, the market has been paying attention to an important signal. US Treasury Secretary Yellen revealed that the probability of the Supreme Court overturning Trump's tariff decision is very low. What does this mean? Trump's emergency tariff powers are essentially a certainty. Another point to watch is the EU trade negotiations, which have not yet been finalized. This uncertainty has caused some tension in the market. Tariff policies have historically influenced commodity prices and exchange rates, thereby affecting the risk premiums of cryptocurrencies. With trade agreements still pending, market sentiment may continue to shift. Investors need to keep a close eye on these policy developments.
