US Treasury Secretary Bessent just dropped a bold forecast: America's economy will clock 3% GDP growth by the end of 2025. That's a pretty optimistic take considering the current global economic headwinds. If this target hits, we could see stronger risk appetite across traditional and crypto markets. Worth watching how Fed policy and fiscal spending play into this—3% growth typically means tighter monetary conditions ahead, which historically pressures speculative assets short-term but signals economic resilience long-term.

3% growth? Just listen, with such high US debt, it's hard to believe it can stay stable --- Bessent is telling stories again; I have some doubts about these figures --- Expectations of rate hikes are causing trouble in the crypto world again; short-term gains are unlikely --- It's called resilience in nice words, but it's really just that money is getting tighter and tighter --- Who still believes these GDP forecasts now... let's wait and see the actual data --- 3% is indeed impressive, but only if no black swan events occur --- Liquidity tightening is not friendly to miners; be prepared in advance, everyone

3% growth? Sounds good, but whether it can actually be achieved is the key. Those Fed folks say a lot of nice things.

3% growth? Sounds like the same old talk, let's wait and see. --- Bessent is really bold this time, if 3% happens I'll eat my keyboard live. --- Tight monetary policy is here, altcoins are probably going to get wiped out in the short term. --- Economic resilience looks good in the long run, but who can withstand this wave of pressure in the short term... --- Another year, another new target. What did they say last year again? --- If it really is 3%, is this bull run for BTC locked in? --- Totally just drawing a pie in the sky, believe it or not, I only half-believe it. --- What will the Fed do? That's the real key, GDP is just superficial.

3% growth? Just listen and let it go, the Federal Reserve repeats this rhetoric every year.

A 3% GDP growth target sounds good, but where is the real computing power yield ratio? In the short term, a tightening cycle does squeeze out speculative positions, but in the long run, it actually presents an opportunity to position oneself. We've seen this logic play out many times during mining pool cycles.

3% growth? Sounds good, but it always sounds better than it is. Here we go again, the whole US Treasury mess still isn’t resolved. It only counts if they can actually deliver—anyway, I’m just waiting to see what the Fed does. Once the tightening cycle starts, crypto will have a tough time again, and in the short term it’ll definitely take a hit. Betting they’ll fail? There are enough lessons from history. The growth numbers look nice, but the real deal is how the government spends money. Is there any point listening to the hype in the news? Let’s just watch how stocks and crypto react.
