The most exciting event at the start of 2026 is right in front of us—Trump is set to announce the next Federal Reserve Chair in January, which is as thrilling as a surprise airdrop in the crypto world.

Currently, the market is closely watching three names: Trump's "number one candidate" Waller, his closely associated advisor Haskett, and the Fed's internal technical official, Waller. How different are these three? It's almost like assigning different "liquidity sponsors" to Bitcoin—Haskett is an outspoken hawk calling for "significant rate cuts," and if he takes the position, funds will flow into the market continuously, greatly increasing the chances of Bitcoin breaking new highs; the other two are relatively conservative, and their policy pace will be much more moderate.

Most importantly, regardless of who ultimately gets selected, Trump's overall pursuit of loose monetary policy is already set, which effectively anchors the entire crypto market's long-term "liquidity expectation." Every day, people are nervously betting on candidate odds, just like watching crypto prices. On the day the truth is revealed in January, the new Fed Chair's stance on rate cuts will directly determine how much room Bitcoin has to rise next.
