#美国证券交易委员会推进数字资产监管框架创新 The new Fed chair candidate revealed: Trump pushes hard, rate cut expectations heat up

$BTC $ETH

Just saw the news: Trump publicly states—Kevin Wash is the "top candidate" to become the next Federal Reserve Chair. More importantly, he emphasizes that Wash's views on rate cuts are completely aligned with his own.

This is not a sudden move. You should know Kevin Wash's background: he has served as a Fed governor, comes from Wall Street, is relatively young, and was once known for his "hawkish" stance on monetary policy. But if he truly shares Trump's views on rate cuts, the whole situation changes. We all know Trump's style—he's been criticizing the Fed for keeping interest rates too high. With the presidential election approaching, when selecting a candidate, he will naturally consider "whether they can align with my policy ideas."

What would happen if Wash actually takes office? Next year's rate cut pace could far exceed market expectations. This would be a significant positive signal for assets like $BTC and $ETH, which are sensitive to loose monetary environments. Investors are already starting to digest this expectation.

But there's another angle worth considering—why is Trump making such a clear statement? First, to reassure his supporters: "Look, I really want to promote easing policies"; second, it might also be a subtle hint to the current Fed: don’t oppose me, my person is about to take over. This is a form of silent pressure.

From a market perspective, this signal is very clear: the future Fed may lean more towards liquidity easing, which could improve overall market sentiment for cryptocurrencies. But it also depends on actual economic data—if inflation doesn't truly stabilize, political will alone won't be enough.

So the question is: is Trump making a long-term strategic move or just testing the waters? If Wash really takes the position, will rate cuts be more aggressive than market expectations? These are all points to keep an eye on.
