Powell Flips the Table and Won't Leave? The Crypto Market's "Savior" Script is Being Rewritten!

Today's news is quite explosive—Powell has really gotten serious this time. Facing criminal investigation pressure from the Trump administration, the old man directly issued a statement through his lawyer: Want to go after me? Then when my chairman term ends in May, I won't leave either—I'll stay in my board position until 2028! The message is crystal clear—the more you pressure me to cut rates, the more I'll hold my ground to defend Fed independence.

Personal take: This whole drama is essentially Trump trying to install his own man Waller to take over and manipulate rate cuts, but Powell just flipped the table and walked away. Plus, the details exposed in the documents are very subtle: Powell's lawyer hinted that if the investigation doesn't stop, Trump won't have enough votes in the Senate to confirm a new chair. What does this mean? It means the Fed's power transition could get deadlocked!

Impact on the crypto market: In the short term, this news exacerbates policy uncertainty—it's bearish. Funds fear this kind of chaos between feuding factions most, and volatility will intensify. But thinking deeper, if Powell really stays, it actually relieves the market's concerns about potential aggressive quantitative tightening under Waller. This is essentially cooling down "tightening expectations."

What players should do: Just watch the March 18 Fed meeting. Powell's press conference will definitely be grilled about his future, and if he takes a strong stance, the dollar and Treasury bonds will keep wavering, and Bitcoin will probably continue its roller-coaster ride.
