#美国核心物价涨幅不及市场预估 Trump recently made a statement: there are currently no plans to dismiss Powell. It sounds like a calming signal, but the second half is the key—"final action is premature." In other words, the pressure has always been there.

This is not just a personnel issue; deeper down, the central banking system itself is changing. On one hand, they say they won't dismiss him, but immediately name two potential successors (Wash and Hasset). This is called "power signaling"—telling Powell that there are alternatives to his position.

Here's the key point: when the central bank chair becomes a bargaining chip for the president, so-called central bank independence becomes a sham. This is not just a headline; it’s a crack in the credibility foundation of the global monetary system. Once confidence wavers, what will happen next?

For the crypto world, this is precisely a historic contextual shift. Think about the original purpose of Bitcoin—what it aims to solve is this kind of monetary system manipulated by a single authority. Satoshi Nakamoto’s design of "peer-to-peer electronic cash" in the genesis block is fundamentally an answer to today’s situation.

Every trust crisis in traditional finance pushes people to seek alternatives. When "where should I put my assets" becomes a global concern, open-source code, transparent rules, and blockchain unaffected by unilateral will become real options.

The reality is clear: the rules of the old system are loosening, and the rules of the new system are determined by code and consensus. This is not just a technical issue; it’s a rethinking of money, power, and trust. What’s your view?

The independence of the central bank is a mere formality; this wave of boosters is fully loaded, waiting to blast out of the atmosphere.

Powell is now the most awkward, being used as a pawn. The idea of central bank independence is just a lie, it's all a power game. Honestly, we should have already thought of alternative plans.

Powell is now like a fish on a chopping board. They say they won't fire him, but all the alternative options are on the table. Isn't this just covert pressure? It's just a power game. The claim of central bank independence should have been dropped long ago. This wave has indeed provided a narrative support point for crypto, but to be honest, Bitcoin should have taken off long ago. The real issue is that ordinary people are still tangled up with the Federal Reserve, while smart money has already allocated to another system.

Powell's move this time is really clever... Saying he won't fire anyone is actually a threat haha --- The independence of the central bank has long been gone, it's just that it's now being openly discussed --- Wait, does this logic mean that the more rotten traditional finance is, the more valuable BTC becomes? --- I just want to know why Biden didn't play like this when he was in office --- The power chips are indeed ruthless, but this is really good news for the crypto circle --- Code doesn't lie, but code can't outrun bombs... relatively speaking, it's still more trustworthy --- Cracks in the old system + emergence of the new system, this does feel like a turning point --- $ETH should be starting to accumulate now, friends

Powell, this guy is really tough, caught in the middle --- The independence of the central bank is essentially non-existent, that’s really hitting home. Our system should have changed its approach long ago --- Bitcoin was probably created for this purpose, where everyone is equal before the code --- Another round of power struggles, let’s see how crypto breaks the deadlock --- Once trust collapses, everyone will have to choose sides again --- This logical chain isn’t that complicated, the old system is leaking, and new things are rising --- In my opinion, it’s not about a "final action," it’s blatant pressure --- Let’s wait and see what happens next; it feels like this is just the beginning --- Every time traditional finance goes bankrupt, the crypto world gains a bit more trust --- Satoshi Nakamoto probably didn’t expect it to be so timely one day

That whole power insinuation is just the most blatant way to negotiate leverage. The veneer of central bank independence has long been exposed.

Powell, this guy is a bit questionable. Not firing him is basically a veiled threat. The independence of the central bank is gone, and the crypto world actually has a chance. Once confidence is shattered, everyone will look for an exit. That's why I'm all in on on-chain assets.

Powell is now just meat on the chopping block, waiting to be cut. --- Another joke about central bank independence, I've said it long ago. --- This time, traditional finance can't compete with code. --- The crypto world should really thank these power games, truly. --- A simple "it's too early," and the entire market has to guess his intentions, ridiculous. --- Bitcoin was originally created to avoid this kind of thing, and now it has become the best risk hedge. --- If confidence is lost, everything is lost. This time is different. --- Using the central bank governor as a bargaining chip—if this news gets out... --- So, it still depends on on-chain data to speak. --- Have you ever thought that this might be the reason big institutions are pushing prices down?
