The U.S. Supreme Court is set to rule on the legality of President Trump's tariffs imposed under emergency powers. Prediction markets suggest a low probability of the government winning the case. The potential economic impact includes significant refunds and lost revenue. However, Bitcoin options traders are pricing seven-day implied volatility near multi-month lows, showing no clear "tariff shock" premium. Lower courts previously ruled the tariffs illegal, stating that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) was stretched beyond Congressional intent. The outcome could lead to high volatility in Bitcoin derivatives, even without a strong directional bias from traders.
