This is one of those moments that, discreetly, sets the tone for an entire cycle.
The Investment Director of #BlackRock is now considered one of the main candidates for the next presidency of the #reservafederal . This alone should make people reflect. BlackRock is at the center of global liquidity, bond markets, and capital allocation. When someone in that position approaches the Fed, policy stops being theoretical and becomes driven by balances.
In addition to this, there is the following:
Donald Trump has openly declared that cutting interest rates is a requirement for the next presidency of the #Fed and is actively asking for interest rates of one percent. It is not subtle. It is a clear demand for a change in liquidity.
Here is the part that no one talks about out loud.
#Ripple and BlackRock have been working in parallel for years. Discreetly. Through institutional channels. Under confidentiality agreements that were never conceived for public debate. Tokenization frameworks. Settlement systems. Liquidity mechanisms. The kind of work that takes place long before headlines are written.
If we understand how power moves, this starts to seem less random.
A Federal Reserve aligned with BlackRock. Political pressure to cut rates. And financial infrastructure providers like Ripple already positioned within the system. This combination does not point to stability. It points to acceleration.
2026 will not be a normal year.
It is shaping up to be the year when liquidity, policy, and digital finance will converge at once.
