Jerome Powell Faces Credibility Test as Fed Divides, Crypto Eyes Volatility

Fed Chair Jerome Powell navigates a deeply divided committee between hawks and doves, balancing rate‑cut expectations with inflation concerns. Markets, including crypto, brace for potential volatility.

Fed is split between hawks (caution on rate cuts) and doves (push for easing policy).

Upcoming economic data (jobs, CPI, retail sales) will heavily influence Fed decisions.

Crypto markets may see swings as rate‑cut speculation clashes with hawkish messaging.

Even without direct crypto announcements, Powell’s moves can trigger sharp swings in Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other risk assets — a reminder of crypto’s sensitivity to macro shifts.
