Former U.S. President Donald Trump has revealed he is considering another round of direct stimulus payments to Americans. According to his statement, the proposed rebate would range between $1,000 to $2,000 per taxpayer, funded directly by money raised from U.S. tariffs.

How Would Tariff‑Funded Rebates Work?

Tariffs are taxes imposed on imported goods, and Trump is proposing that the money collected from these tariffs could be returned to Americans in the form of direct checks. It’s a politically strategic move that he argues would keep more money in American pockets while penalizing foreign producers.

While the idea is still under consideration and would require legislative support, it has already sparked discussions about its economic impact—particularly on consumer spending and inflation.

What It Means for Bitcoin and Crypto

The crypto community is paying close attention. More stimulus money often means increased liquidity in the markets. When people receive extra cash, a portion often flows into alternative investments like Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. During previous stimulus rounds, Bitcoin saw sharp increases as retail investors sought assets outside traditional finance.

If the rebates become reality, crypto markets may once again see a surge in interest, with Bitcoin positioned as a top beneficiary. As history has shown, stimulus equals momentum for digital assets.
