The USMCA renewal is a long-term macro tailwind for risk assets if it reduces geopolitical uncertainty.

This media distraction coincides with $1.2B in unrealized BTC profits sitting at current price levels, creating a fragile equilibrium where even irrelevant news can trigger stop-loss cascades. It highlights how crypto markets are increasingly decoupled from traditional news cycles as they mature.
