#以太坊大户持仓变化 The new Fed chair pick for Trump has been finalized, but it has not yet been announced—this suspense has kept Wall Street on edge. In an interview, he revealed, "I’ve known for a while," but refused to disclose any details, only mentioning that Kevin Hasset "is also a good choice."

The issue is that the new chair will inherit a hot potato. Trump has been pressuring the central bank to cut interest rates, and Powell’s term is about to end (in May). The monetary policy stance of the successor will directly determine the future direction of dollar liquidity. Trump was even blunt: he will only support someone who favors rate cuts. This move is so aggressive that some are already discussing the independence of the Federal Reserve.

Candidates vying for this position include Hasset, Waller, and others. The Davos Forum (January 19-23) is likely to be the window for the official announcement. Treasury Secretary Bessant recently revealed that the outcome is not yet finalized, and various parties are still bargaining.

What’s more exciting is that the Supreme Court is about to hear the case of Trump’s dismissal of Fed Governor Cook, which further tests the bottom line of the central bank’s independence. A power struggle between politics and finance is about to unfold, and the market in 2026 could be significantly affected. For holders of assets like $ETH and $BTC, paying close attention to Fed policy movements is crucial.

With such strong expectations of interest rate cuts, how can the cryptocurrency prices not rise with the easing of dollar liquidity... Trump's move is really ruthless

Hmm... Playing political games again. Can the Federal Reserve really remain independent? --- The rate cut expectations are rising. Can ETH follow and soar... --- Trump's combination punch is really perfect. The Federal Reserve has indeed been sidelined. --- Davos week might need to be closely watched; it feels like a turning point. --- In the power struggle, retail investors are the ones who ultimately suffer. We should watch this drama carefully in 2026. --- If Hasset takes office, liquidity will definitely loosen. Can we start positioning early now? --- The independence of the Federal Reserve is just a joke; it's been gone for a long time. --- A power struggle determines the direction of the coin price. That's the reality, brother.

The Fed's independence is gone, this is getting interesting. --- The rate cut expectations are at their peak, just wait and see how Trump plays this hand. --- Another power game, anyway, just watch the spectacle unfold. --- Davos will reveal its true colors, and the crypto circle will start speculating on expectations again. --- The position of Fed Chair has really become a political bargaining chip. --- Powell's term is coming to an end, and how the new person handles it is the key. --- This move is indeed huge; what does the independence of the central bank matter? Trump can do whatever he wants. --- ETH and BTC will have to dance to the rhythm of dollar liquidity, interesting. --- By May, everything should be settled; betting on a Davos official announcement.
