Tariffs FAQs

Tariffs are customs duties levied on certain merchandise imports or a category of products. Tariffs are designed to help local producers and manufacturers be more competitive in the market by providing a price advantage over similar goods that can be imported. Tariffs are widely used as tools of protectionism, along with trade barriers and import quotas.

Although tariffs and taxes both generate government revenue to fund public goods and services, they have several distinctions. Tariffs are prepaid at the port of entry, while taxes are paid at the time of purchase. Taxes are imposed on individual taxpayers and businesses, while tariffs are paid by importers.

There are two schools of thought among economists regarding the usage of tariffs. While some argue that tariffs are necessary to protect domestic industries and address trade imbalances, others see them as a harmful tool that could potentially drive prices higher over the long term and lead to a damaging trade war by encouraging tit-for-tat tariffs.

During the run-up to the presidential election in November 2024, Donald Trump made it clear that he intends to use tariffs to support the US economy and American producers. In 2024, Mexico, China and Canada accounted for 42% of total US imports. In this period, Mexico stood out as the top exporter with $466.6 billion, according to the US Census Bureau. Hence, Trump wants to focus on these three nations when imposing tariffs. He also plans to use the revenue generated through tariffs to lower personal income taxes.

From Under $0.0025 to $0.25 Over the Next 10 Weeks? Little Pepe (LILPEPE) Named Best Crypto to Buy in 2025 Over Ripple (XRP)

The post From Under $0.0025 to $0.25 Over the Next 10 Weeks? Little Pepe (LILPEPE) Named Best Crypto to Buy in 2025 Over Ripple (XRP) appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The cryptocurrency sector is dynamic and vital for major and minor players alike. With every boom, new categories of tokens are introduced that make new market predictions based on new sets of metrics.  Many believe that, apart from having an appreciated use case that makes it easily attain adoption, Ripple (XRP) has already established itself as a vital part of the blockchain system. But as it turns out, a new competitor, Little Pepe (LILPEPE), has generated significant buzz. Little Pepe is projected to appreciate to 100x its current price of 0.0021, reach 0.25 in 2025, and is considered a top pick for 2025. Ripple (XRP): Dependable but Predictable Ripple has dominated cross-border payment technology for many years. Priced at around $2.98, Ripple remains well supported by partnerships with industry leaders and its increasing contribution to payment processing.  Analysts predict XRP to be at the $7 to $10 range by 2026 and the recent favorable legal rulings Ripple has received in the United States has heightened optimism surrounding the token. For conservative investors, XRP represents stability in an otherwise volatile sector. However, its large market capitalization makes 50x or 100x gains virtually impossible within one cycle. Ripple is a strong asset in the utility sense, but lacks the utility that smaller tokens can bring. Little Pepe (LILPEPE): Presale Energy With a Twist Little Pepe is capturing the attention of investors with its outstanding presale performance. Currently, the presale is in Stage 12, and each stage sells out faster and faster. presale is at $0.0021.  Each stage is selling out faster and faster. Analysts speculate the token could rise to $0.25 within 10 weeks after listing. Such a rise would be one of recent memory’s most remarkable early runs.

Metaplanet Stock Slides as Top Japanese Bitcoin Treasury Sets Up Shop in Miami

The post Metaplanet Stock Slides as Top Japanese Bitcoin Treasury Sets Up Shop in Miami appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In brief Tokyo-listed Metaplanet is expanding to the U.S. Its Miami-based subsidiary will initially have $15 million in capital. The firm meanwhile closed on its $1.45 billion public offering. Metaplanet, a Tokyo-listed hotel group that owns $2.3 billion worth of Bitcoin, said on Wednesday that its business is expanding to the U.S. The firm, which owns more than 20,000 Bitcoin, is establishing a subsidiary in Miami, Florida, to “manage and grow income-generation activities,” according to a press release. Metaplanet said the wholly-owned firm, dubbed Metaplanet Income Corp., will initially have $15 million in capital. It will provide its parent company with a better opportunity to “pursue derivatives operations and related activities that produce revenue,” Metaplanet added. The company’s shares changed hands around $4.06, falling nearly 4% on Wednesday, according to Yahoo Finance. The company’s stock price has plunged roughly 68% over the past three months from $12.90, although it has still increased 74% year-to-date.  Founded in 1999, Metaplanet has managed budget hotels across Japan, including “love hotels,” but Wednesday’s announcement makes no mention of hospitality. Rather, Metaplanet said the new subsidiary will be separate from its treasury operations. In the second quarter, Metaplanet disclosed an operating profit of ¥817 million ($5.5 million) on ¥1.23 billion ($8.4 million) in total sales, according to a shareholder presentation.  The performance was largely driven by Metaplanet’s income-generation segment, which generated ¥1.13 billion ($7.7 million) by selling Bitcoin put options. The derivatives are only profitable for buyers when Bitcoin’s spot price falls below an option’s given strike price. “This business has become our engine of growth, generating consistent revenue and net income,” Metaplanet President Simon Gerovich said on X on Wednesday. Gerovich separately said on Wednesday that Metaplanet had officially closed on its $1.45 billion offering of 385 million shares. More than 70 investors…
