Analysis: Tariff Threat Continues to Impact Bitcoin, Liquidity Providers May Magnify Market Volatility
BlockBeats News, January 20th, due to Trump's tariff threat against European countries opposing his "takeover of Greenland," geopolitical tensions escalated, causing Bitcoin and major cryptocurrencies to fall simultaneously with Nasdaq futures.
In addition to the macro bearish news, internal market mechanics may also exacerbate price volatility. Data shows that Bitcoin options market makers are currently in a negative Gamma exposure range of $86,000–$95,000. In a negative Gamma state, market makers hedge risks and often passively buy on price increases and sell on price declines, thus amplifying market fluctuations.
The market is also watching the potential Supreme Court ruling risk regarding Trump's tariff policy. Analysts point out that if the ruling is unfavorable, it may trigger greater volatility in the short term in trade policy, fiscal deficit expectations, and other areas.
On the traditional market front, the US 10-year Treasury yield rose to a four-month high of 4.37%, the US dollar weakened, and US stock futures came under pressure, indicating overall pressure on US stocks and risk assets.

Goldman Sachs issued a special warning, highlighting a clear internal contradiction between the hawkish remarks made by Waller and the SEP projection that inflation will not fall back to 2% until 2029. If there is no substantial change in the inflation trend in the fourth quarter, the Federal Reserve may adopt a more aggressive front-loading rate hike path than currently indicated in the dot plot, and the baseline expectation of "one more hike" may face upward revision pressure.
