The U.S. Supreme Court is currently hearing a major case concerning the independence of the Federal Reserve—specifically, whether the President has the authority to dismiss Federal Reserve officials. The outcome of this lawsuit could rewrite the rules of the central bank's decision-making game. If presidential power is expanded and the Federal Reserve's political firewall is broken, with monetary policy space limited, what does that mean for the crypto market? Uncertainty in interest rate policy will directly impact asset pricing, and erosion of central bank autonomy usually signals an early end to the easing cycle. As a non-traditional safe haven, crypto assets often gain attention during periods of policy chaos. The final ruling in this case could become a key variable influencing macro asset allocation in 2025.

Once the firewall is breached, the Federal Reserve will fall, and the printing press speed is likely to soar. This is truly a positive development for the crypto world.

Is the Federal Reserve's independence being compromised? That's just the prelude to a flood. At this point, BTC is the true safe haven. I figured out this logic last year.

Uh, does this mean the Federal Reserve is about to be sidelined? Is the crypto world about to celebrate? --- The president directly intervenes in the central bank—something that would have been unthinkable before. Is it really happening now? --- Policy chaos = rising crypto prices? I just want to know what the worst-case scenario is. --- If the independence of the Federal Reserve collapses, will the easing cycle really come early? Feels like this logic is a bit too simplistic. --- Wait, wait, wait—if the firewall is broken, does that mean all asset pricing models need to be recalculated? --- WDYM, the erosion of central bank autonomy signaling easing—feels like political intervention might actually cause inflation. --- The biggest black swan in 2025 is this one. The day of the verdict should cause a sell-off, right? --- Actually, no matter the verdict, for us holding coins, is it an opportunity? Or just a gamble?

Things are really going to get chaotic now. Has the Federal Reserve become the president's toy? The crypto world’s celebration time has arrived.

If the President can arbitrarily revoke the Federal Reserve Chair, what’s the point of our coin prices staying stable? They would directly become political pawns. Is the chaos in policy actually an opportunity to jump in? That logic is a bit extreme. If the Federal Reserve falls, the crypto market can turn around—this gamble is quite risky. The easing is real, but if inflation picks up again, all assets will be worthless. If this bill really passes, Bitcoin should skyrocket, which would be reasonable. So, in the end, the winners are still those playing politics; we just focus on swing trading. If the central bank loses autonomy, it just means printing money endlessly—can the coin still fall?

If the Federal Reserve's independence is truly compromised, then the crypto world will be the real winner... Policy chaos = money flows into safe-haven assets, and we just need to ride this wave of benefits.
