Bilateral trade liberalization between major economies could unlock significant growth potential. If tariff barriers between developed markets come down—and especially if this happens reciprocally—we're looking at faster economic expansion across the board. That means stronger purchasing power, healthier GDP growth, and ultimately better market conditions. Right now, global trade fragmentation is real. Opening up these channels would give developed economies a serious competitive edge while raising living standards. The math is straightforward: lower barriers = more efficient markets = prosperity.

Lowering tariffs sounds great, but only those who lose money really know.

In plain terms, it's an ideal scenario. But in reality? The US turns around and imposes tariffs and barriers again. This logic sounds fine in theory, but in practice, it's a complete mess.

Basically, it's about wanting to weaken protectionism, but who truly benefits depends on who holds the power of discourse.

NGL, mutually beneficial tariff openness sounds great, but can it be achieved in reality? Feels like just empty talk.

To put it simply, the idea of mutually cutting tariffs sounds good, but when it actually happens? Developed countries will still protect their own industries.

NGL trade barriers may sound simple to talk about, but if they are really dismantled, it would drive the interests groups of various countries crazy... Reality is more brutal than formulas.

Nah, this theory sounds good, but in reality, countries are all practicing protectionism. Whoever loosens first will be the one to get chopped.

The reduction of trade barriers can indeed improve market efficiency, but it depends on who can seize the commanding heights of the computing network in this wave of restructuring. The competitive advantage of developed countries is essentially the speed of technological iteration, which is consistent with the difficulty adjustment logic of mining.

To be honest, this theory sounds great, but in reality? It all depends on who has the final say.
