Trump's tough stance against the Federal Reserve! The nominee for chairman must comply and lower interest rates, or they will be eliminated directly! 一起聊聊
"Anyone who disagrees with me should never think of becoming the chairman of the Federal Reserve!" Trump's powerful statement on social media directly ties the nominee for Federal Reserve chairman to the stance on interest rate cuts, instantly stirring the global financial market, and the crypto space is also facing a new round of turbulence.
It is known that the current chairman Powell will resign in May 2026, and Trump has long locked in two dovish popular candidates, Waller and Haskett. This statement is tantamount to tightening the future Federal Reserve policy. He has repeatedly criticized Powell for being "timid" in lowering interest rates, stating that the ideal chairman should "proactively lower interest rates when the market is doing well," and even advocating that inflation can be dealt with later, and that interest rate hikes should never "stifle market vitality."
However, Federal Reserve officials directly countered, with Goolsbee clearly stating that "policy making should not consider political pressure," firmly upholding the independence of the central bank, and the game between both sides has intensified. For the crypto market, this is both an opportunity and a risk: if expectations for interest rate cuts rise, the easing of dollar liquidity could bring inflows into BTC and ETH; however, increased policy uncertainty may also trigger severe market volatility—currently, BTC is fluctuating around $87,000, while ETH is still under pressure at the $3,000 level, and there have been previous signals of continued negative funding rates indicating bearish sentiment.
Will this political and central bank confrontation lead to a resurgence in expectations for interest rate cuts? Can ETH break through key resistance, and will BTC stabilize above the $88,000 mark? The concept of Musk's small puppy p.u.ppi.es can be checked out!
