The recent movements of Bitcoin and Ethereum have added a new variable.
Trump has already made it clear that a new Federal Reserve Chair will be finalized in early January next year. There is a key figure behind this — Treasury Secretary Yellen. It is understood that she is not only leading the selection process for the Fed Chair but also actively promoting the implementation of interest rate cuts.
From the perspective of the crypto market, what does this mean? A rate cut cycle often increases liquidity, and the expectation of rate cuts itself can trigger reallocation of funds. The interest rate cut policies strongly promoted by Yellen are aligned with a new agenda that could fundamentally rewrite the Fed’s decision-making framework. How well the Treasury Secretary’s views match those of the future Fed Chair directly affects the direction of monetary policy.
In the short term, the rising expectation of rate cuts makes BTC more attractive. However, the uncertainty during the power transition period cannot be ignored. The market is waiting for clearer policy signals.

As soon as the rate cut expectation emerged, the crypto circle started to get excited, but is this guy Bessent reliable? I still need to wait and see.
The new Federal Reserve Chair hasn't been decided yet, and this chess game is too complicated. It feels like there are still many uncertainties.
Basically, it's just waiting for signals. It's too early to say anything now. As long as liquidity hasn't truly materialized, it's all just virtual.
If Bessent can really push through a rate cut, this wave of BTC price increase might not be a dream, but the premise is that policies don't reverse.
Is the Federal Reserve in charge of this matter alone? The risk of a power transfer is so high, and they still want to sit back and win? That's overthinking.
This kind of uncertainty is the most annoying. The coin prices fluctuate accordingly. I think I'll hold on for now and not move.
The rate cut sounds good, but with the Federal Reserve Chair not yet decided, they're already speculating on expectations. Isn't that just gambling?

Bissent's move this time feels like paving the way for the crypto market... As soon as the rate cut expectation emerged, BTC is about to take off again.
The rate cut hasn't even been implemented yet, but everyone is already speculating on expectations. This routine is old but effective.
The most disgusting period is during leadership transitions; policies change and markets crash. Still, wait for signals before acting.
If Bissent really turns the Federal Reserve into a "cheap money" mode, then liquidity will explode.
Short-term bullish, but there are too many political uncertainties. Who dares to go all in?
Can Trump's candidate secure a rate cut? That's the key, otherwise it's all talk.
When liquidity increases, crypto prices will rise, but it's also worrying—it might be a prelude to a wipeout.
At this stage, it all depends on the attitude after the Federal Reserve Chair is confirmed. Right now, it's all suspense.
Bissent pushing for a rate cut—why hasn't BTC broken records yet? Feels like speculating on expectations is a bit虚.

honestly bessent pushing rate cuts is such theater... market's already priced in the pivot three months ago, empirically speaking. everyone's acting like january's some magic catalyst when really it's just noise between now and actual policy implementation. ngl the btc pump feels fragile without real liquidity backstop

Besant's move in this game is quite brilliant. As soon as the interest rate cut expectation emerged, the coin price started to stir... But I still don't dare to go all in. Haven't we seen enough stories of policy reversals?

Besent is really playing a big game. When rate cut expectations rise, BTC follows with enthusiasm.
During the power transition period, uncertainty is like a time bomb. Who the hell can see it clearly?
When the rate cut cycle arrives, you have to allocate, but the signals still need to wait a bit longer.
Trump, Besent, and the new Federal Reserve Chair form a triangle with a bit of complexity. That’s the real variable.
BTC has a keen sense; once the policy framework changes, liquidity needs to be reshuffled.
Wait until policies become clearer before jumping in. It's easier to get cut now if you rush in.

Bessent, this guy is really playing a big game. As the expectation of interest rate cuts rises, BTC will definitely soar. I'm just worried about policy reversals and getting slapped in the face.

Besant's move was quite aggressive. The market reacts to rate cut expectations along with BTC, but I'm still waiting to see who the final Fed Chair will be. It feels like this round of the market will depend on how the power game unfolds.

Besant's move in this game is quite interesting. If interest rate cuts really happen, can the crypto market not go crazy?
---
Speculation about rate cut expectations, but it's still early for it to actually happen. Don't get caught off guard.
---
The transfer of power is the hardest to predict. I prefer to wait and see first.
---
Is BTC rising now? Wait until policies are really confirmed before talking.
---
Can the Federal Reserve's approach be changed? I doubt it. Don't overthink it.
---
If these rate cuts really come, liquidity will explode. But the premise must be fulfilled.
---
When Trump makes a move, the market gets chaotic. This time, it's another rollercoaster.
---
Besant wants to change the Federal Reserve framework? That's quite ambitious. Whether the market believes it or not is another story.
---
Short-term speculation is just that—speculation. The real good news has to wait until the dust settles.
---
With such high uncertainty, going all-in now is just a gambler's mentality.

Besant's move in this game is well played. The expectation of interest rate cuts combined with BTC is set to take off. Let's see if it can be confirmed in January.
