Crypto KOL Wimar.X posted that January 10th could be the "worst day" in the market, as the U.S. Supreme Court may rule Trump's tariffs illegal, leading to a crash in stocks and cryptocurrencies. Although the scale of tariff refunds is considered exaggerated, market volatility could still present trading opportunities. Tom Lee commented that this is a contrarian signal.

On January 7th, crypto KOL Wimar.X(@DefiWimar) posted that January 10th (this Friday) could become the “worst day” in this year’s market, as the U.S. Supreme Court may rule that Trump’s tariffs are illegal (currently, the probability of this event on Polymarket is as high as 78%), leading to a crash in U.S. stocks, cryptocurrencies, and bonds. Wimar.X believes that historical cases show that an “illegal tariff ruling” will trigger massive tariff refunds (Wimar.X states the maximum scale could reach $600 billion), which usually require years of litigation on a case-by-case basis, causing non-immediate cash flow shocks. Notably, community members think that the scale of tariff refunds mentioned in the article is exaggerated, and the market volatility at that time will be an opportunity for manipulation rather than a collapse. Tom Lee also reposted the article and commented that “this could be a contrarian signal.”
