$BTC The markets are all betting on rate cuts, but the Federal Reserve's mouthpiece drops a bombshell: Powell has hired top Wall Street lawyers to firmly push back against Washington's political pressure! Issuing a statement on Sunday, the legal team had been planning for months in advance, which is a strong display of the "independence of the Federal Reserve," signaling Washington to stay out of the money printing machine!

Powell's move sends three key signals: political easing is unlikely, the Fed will focus solely on economic data; the era of high interest rates is likely to be extended, with slow rate cuts and prolonged balance sheet reduction becoming the main themes; market logic is being reshaped, so keep a close eye on CPI data.
For the crypto market, it's a mixed bag of good and bad news. In the long term, it's highly positive— the more independent the Fed, the less monetary policy is influenced by politics, making Bitcoin's "non-political asset" narrative even stronger. But in the short term, stay calm; liquidity tightening expectations remain, and risk assets might be suppressed. However, the panic-driven market dips could be opportunities for strategic positioning.
This move by Powell defends the central bank's bottom line and effectively declares the "independence of the Federal Reserve." The upcoming congressional hearings will be the main event— a true battleground! Will the Fed's independence be a reassurance or a source of volatility for the market?
