‼️ Key Points from Powell's Jackson Hole Speech on August 22 | Understanding the Impact on the Crypto Sector at a Glance
* Tone: Acknowledges marginal weakness in employment, remains vigilant on inflation; leaves the door open for a September rate cut "but does not commit" (data-dependent).
* Framework Update: FOMC releases a new version of the "Longer-Run Goals and Monetary Policy Strategy" — returning to a clear symmetric 2%, phasing out the 2020 language of "tolerating overshoots" (evaluated every five years).
* Market Immediate Reaction: U.S. stocks strengthen, front-end yields decline; bets on a "small rate cut in September" intensify.
Three Implications for Crypto
1. If 2-year yields ↓ & DXY breaks intraday low → BTC/ETH lead, high β public chains and themes accelerate; watch ETF/spot flow for volume.
2. If wording/data turns hawkish → first reduce β, protect mainstream, wait for a second entry after rate pullback.
3. Key upcoming anchors: 8/29 PCE, 9/5 Non-Farm Payrolls, 9/11 CPI, will reprice the magnitude and path for September.
