A survey shows that among the 200 CEOs interviewed, 71% openly stated that Trump is undermining the independence of the Federal Reserve. They believe that the pressure on Powell is solely for political gain and has nothing to do with the country's future prospects.

Interestingly, yesterday, the heads of major central banks around the world, including the European Central Bank and the Bank of England, unusually issued a collective statement, openly siding with Powell—essentially telling Trump "no." This rare joint stance by multiple central banks reflects the global financial community's shared commitment to maintaining central bank independence.

Now the question is: how should Trump respond? Changes in central bank policies have always influenced the direction of global capital markets, including long-term expectations for the cryptocurrency market. How will this policy game ultimately unfold? It's worth watching.

The independence of the central bank, to put it simply, is a matter of the boundaries of power. What does Trump want to do? When interest rates can't be lowered, he blames Powell—this trick is so old. However, this time, the collective stance of global central banks is quite firm; it seems that they are banding together because their opponents are too strong. What does this imply... The crypto world fears not interest rate cuts, but political interference. The crypto market has always been closely tied to macro policies, and now this situation is even more complicated. If Trump really ruins the Fed's independence, in the long run, it might not be a bad thing for BTC—at least fiat currency credibility will be questioned... But in the short term, how this game will unfold, no one knows for sure.

The independence of central banks, to put it simply, is a tug-of-war between politics and finance. Currently, central banks worldwide are banding together to resist Trump, and this situation is indeed quite interesting. Whether Bitcoin can capitalize on the benefits of changes in central bank policies depends crucially on how the situation unfolds next.

The central bank's recent joint effort has held Trump back. I like this pace... If the Federal Reserve is truly hijacked by politics, the crypto circle will probably suffer a big setback. For now, we can only bet that the rate cut cycle won't be messed up.

pattern recognition screaming rn... 71% alignment on fed independence is statistically significant, but watch the wallet clustering—whales always front-run policy fractures like this.央行这波联合stance？textbook behavioral indicator of institutional nervousness. crypto markets gonna feel the volatility cascades when this resolves, mark it down.
