The Fed has just finished its meeting again, and Powell really spoke without leaving any loopholes this time. On the surface, he continues to emphasize "no rush to cut interest rates," but behind the scenes, he has secretly slowed down the pace of balance sheet reduction—this operation is simply saying one thing while doing another. For those of us who deal with coins, this subtle point shaving signal is actually worth pondering, as once market liquidity is loosened, funds will have to find a place to go.

Trump's side is firing on all cylinders, publicly criticizing Powell every few days, even giving him nicknames to pressure him. Now there are rampant rumors that Powell is privately weighing whether to leave early. To be honest, this kind of political tug-of-war is the most annoying, the stock market and bond market are shaken, and the crypto market can't escape either, definitely will follow suit with ups and downs in the short term.

Inflation is still a tough nut to crack. Powell says "short-term shocks can be tolerated" but with prices as they are, both businesses and ordinary people are uncertain. Economic data looks decent, but everyone’s expectations for the future are becoming increasingly vague. Personally, I feel that policies are actually starting to shift - the slowdown in balance sheet reduction is the most obvious hint, and those quick to respond have already begun to position themselves, waiting for the next round of market movement.

The question arises: Will Powell really be able to last until the end of his term in 2026? If a more dovish leader comes to power and actively signals a rate cut, will the crypto market explode? Everyone is welcome to share their views and also discuss which coin you think has the potential for a significant surge next.
