Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's recent remarks. In a speech delivered on April 16, 2025, at the Economic Club of Chicago, Powell addressed both interest rate policy and cryptocurrency regulation.

Interest Rate Outlook: Powell indicated that while inflation readings have been higher than expected, the Federal Reserve is not in a rush to cut interest rates. He emphasized that any decision on rate cuts would be data-dependent and contingent on achieving the Fed's 2% inflation target.

Cryptocurrency Regulation: Powell addressed concerns about the crypto industry, noting the presence of "turmoil," including fraud and lack of transparency. He stressed the importance of regulation to manage these risks but clarified that the Fed does not intend to stifle innovation.

This balanced approach—acknowledging the need for regulation without hindering innovation—along with a cautious stance on interest rate adjustments, has contributed to renewed investor confidence in the crypto market.
