#TrumpVsPowell Could Crypto Win If Trump Fires Jerome Powell?
Former U.S. President Donald Trump is ramping up pressure on Fed Chair Jerome Powell, saying “his termination can’t come fast enough.” Reports suggest Trump is exploring how to remove Powell — something never done in modern U.S. history.
So, what would this mean for the economy, the markets, and especially crypto?
⸻
1. Market Shock Ahead
Firing Powell could shake investor confidence. Expect:
• Stock market volatility
• A weaker U.S. dollar (USD)
• Higher bond yields
This uncertainty often drives demand for Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) as alternative assets.
2. Inflation Policy Shifts
A new Fed Chair aligned with Trump could push for lower interest rates, increasing:
• Inflation risk
• Demand for crypto as an inflation hedge
3. Crypto as a Safe Haven
Loss of trust in central banks could fuel adoption of:
• DeFi platforms
• Stablecoins
• BTC as digital gold
4. Global Implications
Such a move could weaken global faith in the U.S. dollar, accelerating the shift toward crypto, CBDCs, and tokenized assets.
Bottom line: If Powell is removed, crypto might be one of the few markets to benefit from the chaos.
