Japanese Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Yoji Muto: We will strongly request the United States to exempt Japan from tariff measures and set up a special working group to provide information and grasp the impact.Japanese Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Yoji Muto: The content of (US tariffs) needs to be analyzed and the impact on the Japanese economy examined.Japanese Economy, Trade and Industry Minister Yoji Muto: We have told the United States that the new tariff announcement is "extremely regrettable."On April 3, Kimberly Clausing, a former Biden administration official and nonresident senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, called Trumps tariff announcement on Wednesday "very stubborn and much worse than I expected." "I expected things to be bad, but I didnt expect this level of self-harm. Its shocking that anyone thought this was a good idea. Id be shocked if we can get through this without a recession and Trump doesnt have to reverse his policies."On April 3, some economists worry that if Trump does not quickly cancel the latest round of tariffs, it may push the US economy into a recession. "If the US government implements these higher tariffs without major exemptions, it will be difficult for the economy to digest this. A recession seems more likely." said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moodys Analytics. Zandi said, "In many ways, the tariffs announced by Trump are even worse than the worst case scenario he envisioned. If they stick to it, I will buckle up and prepare for the impact." Zandi added that on a static basis, tariffs account for nearly 2% of GDP (not considering the impact of tariffs on the economy and taxes), which makes this round of tariffs the largest tax increase since the tax increase used to finance the war during World War II.

Together, Acala and Anchor want to expand Terra and Polkadot's stablecoin sector.


The cooperation will use the Acala protocol to create deep liquidity pools for aUSD and UST.


Anchor's stock has dropped 20% in the last two days, according to the news.


Stablecoins are one of the most important components of the DeFi sector, and Acala, the cross-chain DeFi protocol, plans to create a Decentralized Finance center for the whole Polkadot ecosystem with this new alliance, expanding the reach of these stablecoins.

Anchor and Acala

Anchor, the world's largest lending protocol, teamed up with Acala to revitalize the Terra and Polkadot ecosystems' stablecoin fronts.


Acala and Anchor will build up liquidity pools for TerraUSD (UST) and Acala's stablecoin (aUSD) on Acala as part of this agreement.


This will serve as a point of entry into the Polkadot ecosystem for UST holders. For each of these stablecoins, the platforms want to increase liquidity and yield potential.


Furthermore, with the Liquid DOT (LDOT) token and Acala's – carrying liquid staking derivatives – Liquid KSM, the Karura parachain will aid Anchor's collateral alternatives for UST (LKSM).


Users may acquire access to the Anchor yield by using these tokens, then depositing them as collateral to borrow UST on Anchor. They will be able to gain ANC incentives for borrowing while also being able to deposit their UST for a fixed rate.


According to the press release, the Terra environment will be presented to a whole new set of users from 'Dotsama' (Polkadot and Kusama).

Anchor And Charts 

While other cryptocurrencies have struggled over the previous few days, Anchor has had the worst week of them all. Anchor was the first to fall this week, falling 32% in three days. On April 11, the price dropped by 19% in a single day.


Recovery from this drop will take time since the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is still in the bearish-neutral zone, and a sustained rebound will need a break into the bullish zone.
