【Is the Federal Reserve now part of Trump's family? With three face changes in a week, people in the crypto circle are about to go crazy】
Have you all noticed? The Federal Reserve's current operations are even less predictable than Trump’s tweets back in the day, fluctuating so much that it’s hard to make sense of it.
Last week, they just released negative news, pushing the market down hard, causing Bitcoin and Ethereum to go flat. Then just two days later, they switched to ‘positive news’: hinting at interest rate cuts and signaling easing, and the market instantly shot up in confusion.
Isn't this just the obvious “feed the pig—slaughter the pig—then feed it again” routine? 🐷
Some joked that the current Federal Reserve is less like a central bank and more like Trump’s personal loudspeaker. When Trump shouts “cut interest rates,” Powell must immediately put on a show of being “slow to respond.” Politics, capital, and the market have long stirred into a pot of unclear soup.
The key question is—what should ordinary retail investors do? The answer is quite painful: chasing highs leads to being trapped, bottom fishing leads to getting cut, and after being tossed around a few times, you become the Federal Reserve’s ATM. To put it bluntly, what we are trading isn’t coins; it’s clearly Powell’s mood!
Don’t believe it? This week has been that surreal:
Monday said to raise interest rates ➝ The market trembled in fear
Wednesday hinted at easing ➝ Everyone rushed in to FOMO (fear of missing out)
Friday suddenly mentioned “overheating economy” ➝ The market crashed again
Retail investors: This week, I’ve already “died” three times.
So, brothers, don’t take their rhetoric too seriously. Every word the Federal Reserve says is backed by capital putting on a big show. What we can do is to follow less, hold more mainstream coins, and stabilize our mindset.
In short: The Federal Reserve is playing a game where they change their stance faster than flipping a book, so don’t let yourself become an NPC that can be replaced in their script at any time.
