#ETH巨鲸增持 The White House leadership change drama reaches a climax! The candidate for the Fed chairman appointed by Trump has basically emerged—current White House National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett has become the hottest contender. Once the news broke, the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield directly surpassed 4%. What is the market sensing?
Who is Hasset? To put it simply, he is a staunch executor of Trump's economic policies. Tax reduction plans and American manufacturing, all these core policies have his shadow behind them. More importantly, this guy has long publicly stated: the first thing I will do when I take office is to lower interest rates, and the economic data fully supports this action. This dovish stance aligns perfectly with Trump's idea of lowering government borrowing costs and igniting the economy. The market is now guessing whether the rate cut in 2026 will exceed 100 basis points.
Currently, the list of candidates still includes former Fed governor Warsh, current governor Waller, and a few others, but Haslett has a clear advantage—he was already in the White House circle, making policy coordination quite smooth. However, you know Trump's personnel decisions; the White House has said itself: anything can change before an official announcement.
The leadership change storm has already started to stir the market. The growth sector of US stocks and gold are both rising, while the US dollar is actually falling. But two big questions remain: Can the Fed's independence withstand political pressure? Will inflation stickiness limit the room for interest rate cuts? The answers are likely to be revealed before Christmas, and Trump will probably announce the final candidate before then. How global assets are priced will depend on this crucial deal.

Has Hasset lowered interest rates by 100bp? This depends on inflation cooperation. With such strong stickiness now, if they really dare to do this, inflation will explode.

With Hasset taking office, the Fed's interest rate cut is really coming, I need to stock up on some stablecoins first.

actually, if you analyze the on-chain data, this fed chair drama is literally just noise compared to what's happening with btc's tx throughput optimization... the real alpha is tracking mempool pressure, not political theater tbh

As soon as the interest rate cut expectations came out, there was such restlessness, and the dollar continued to drop. It feels like this wave of market is a bit precarious...

Is Hasit going to directly cut interest rates? I’m optimistic about this deal, ETH is going to rise.

The expectation of interest rate cuts has risen, but the Fed's independence still needs to be overcome; otherwise, it will be just a theoretical discussion.

Did Hasit directly cut interest rates upon taking office? When inflation rises again, we all have to pay the price.
