#美联储联邦公开市场委员会决议 The New Fed Chair Candidate Emerges, Crypto Market May Face Policy Changes

On December 13th, just past, Trump revealed the latest considerations for the Federal Reserve leadership in an interview. He stated that former Fed Governor Kevin Wash and current National Economic Council Director Kevin Hasset are the two leading candidates, with Wash currently at the top of the shortlist.

"I think he's the best candidate. You see, I hold two Kevins—both of them have performed well," Trump said in an interview at the Oval Office. "There are actually a few others who are also good, but these two are indeed very competitive."

This news is highly significant for the crypto market. The policy stance of the Fed Chair directly determines the tone of U.S. monetary policy, which in turn influences global capital flows and risk asset valuations. Wash and Hasset each represent different policy philosophies—meaning the market needs to reevaluate interest rate expectations and risk appetite for 2025.

For mainstream assets like $BTC, $ETH, and others, Fed policy uncertainty often brings short-term volatility but may also create medium-term allocation opportunities. Investors are closely watching the final outcome of this behind-the-scenes game.
