Not long ago, Trump leaked part of the employment data on Truth Social, releasing it 12 hours before the official December employment report. This move drew a lot of attention—it's important to note that such sensitive economic data usually follows a strict disclosure schedule. The White House has not responded officially yet, but as a rule, Trump typically receives detailed data briefings the day before. What does this information asymmetry mean in the financial markets? For traders and market participants, whoever has access to the data first has the opportunity to act first. This also reminds us that in cryptocurrency and traditional financial markets, timing and information are often equally valuable.

This is insider trading. Whoever knows first makes money. That's why I always wondered how some people can time their entries perfectly.

Wow, this information gap is ridiculous... Sending it 12 hours early? Traders probably already made a killing by now.

Information asymmetry is money. If I had known earlier, the 12-hour traders would have already made a fortune by now, and we are still watching the news [laugh cry]. Remember, the most important thing when losing money is to stay sober. This move has shown me the brutal truth of the market. Those who can get data ahead of time have already built positions at the bottom zone. We retail investors can only rely on mental resilience to ride out the cycle. Another day of being taught by the market, but the phoenix will always be reborn. Timing is everything. Who says otherwise? This wave of information asymmetry is truly incredible. Be patient and wait for your opportunity; value will eventually return.

The smell of insider trading is in the air, this is a common problem in both traditional finance and the crypto world.
