Trump just announced plans for a dramatic jump in U.S. defense spending heading into 2027, framing it around what he calls 'dangerous times.' Here's the thing—when the world's largest economy pumps billions into defense, it ripples across global markets, including crypto.
Historically, periods of increased government spending correlate with inflation concerns, currency movements, and shifts in how capital allocates across assets. The dollar strength, interest rate expectations, and risk appetite in digital assets all feel the tremors from decisions like these.
Whether you're holding major coins or analyzing market cycles, U.S. fiscal policy moves deserve attention. How do you reckon this spending trajectory impacts the broader macro picture for crypto?

The expectation of a US dollar rate hike is back. Is this really going to happen this time?

Defense spending soars, the dollar strengthens, which is good for Bitcoin... This logic is a bit counterintuitive but still makes sense.

Spending so aggressively on defense, the crypto world is bound to follow the volatility... The dollar's appreciation this time really can't be held back

Really? Are you going to spend money on military expenses again? Then Bitcoin will have to follow the dollar's fluctuations again.

Spending is rising again, the US dollar is strong, and the crypto world is going to shake for a while.
