🚨 BTC SLIDES AS FED LEADERSHIP UNCERTAINTY GROWS 🇺🇸
Bitcoin ($BTC ) moved lower after Trump confirmed he’ll announce his nominee for the next Federal Reserve Chair tomorrow.
This isn’t noise — it’s a serious macro development. ⚡️
Trump suggested his pick will favor aggressive rate cuts and faster growth, putting him at odds with the Fed’s current, more cautious approach.
Just days earlier, Jerome Powell kept rates unchanged at 3.50%–3.75%, stressing inflation remains above the Fed’s 2% target.
Trump’s view couldn’t be more different: he wants U.S. rates lower than anywhere else in the world.
Why Markets Sold Off 📉
Policy uncertainty jumped
White House and Fed messaging diverged
Liquidity outlook became unclear
Traders re-priced future rate expectations
Kevin Warsh Back in the Spotlight 👀
Betting odds spiked following Trump’s comments.
Warsh, a former Fed Governor (2006–2011), is known for:
Prioritizing monetary discipline
Pushing back against excessive easing
Emphasizing financial system stability
A more restrictive stance on crypto and regulation
The Key Point
BTC didn’t drop because of a single data point —
it fell because expectations fractured.
If Warsh gets the nod, don’t assume quick or easy rate cuts. He’s a conventional policymaker, and follow-through matters more than rhetoric.
Markets despise uncertainty —
and right now, uncertainty is front and center. 👀
