Former President Donald Trump unveiled a plan to distribute $2,000 payments to U.S. citizens using tariffs collected by the government, potentially injecting $500 billion into the economy. This proposal excludes high-income earners and awaits congressional approval for implementation. The potential economic impact is substantial, with economists predicting inflationary effects similar to past stimulus packages. While some are optimistic about its potential to boost markets and consumer spending, others worry about rising inflation rates. Notably, this plan differs from previous debt-funded stimulus measures. If approved, these payments may mirror the 2020 federal stimulus checks that significantly impacted cryptocurrency prices like Bitcoin and Ethereum.
