Crypto enthusiasts are watching Kevin Warsh closely. Warsh has a history of investing in crypto startups, including Bitwise and the now-defunct Basis stablecoin project. He also recognizes Bitcoin as a store of value, akin to digital gold.
However, he has expressed skepticism about crypto as a currency, citing volatility and calling it “software, not money.” His support for a U.S. central bank digital currency (CBDC) raises potential competition for decentralized stablecoins and payment systems.
Potential Market Impact
Lower interest rates under Warsh could push investors toward crypto and equities. Yet, a CBDC could reshape the digital payment landscape, creating both opportunities and challenges for the crypto ecosystem.
Investor Insight
Warsh’s Fed policies will likely be market-moving, impacting risk assets, crypto adoption, and liquidity. Smart investors will watch May–June 2026 closely when policy shifts may begin in earnest.
