#PowellRemarks Is the Fed Slowing Crypto — or Letting It Grow?
Fed Chair Jerome Powell spoke, markets dipped — but what does it mean for crypto?
Here’s the core message:
1. The Fed won’t rescue markets at every wobble.
2. Trade policy risks (especially with Trump back in headlines) could fuel inflation.
3. Stablecoins are on the Fed’s radar — and may soon see friendlier regulations.
Markets reacted negatively because they were hoping for a clear rate cut signal — and didn’t get one. Powell wasn’t negative, but he wasn’t reassuring either.
So, what’s next?
Rates likely stay put until summer.
Stablecoins gain legitimacy.
Crypto decouples from Fed moves.
Volatility stays high — but that’s opportunity.
Bottom line: Less Fed talk, more crypto action.
