The Supreme Court's latest signals suggest Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook will likely keep her position, which essentially pushes back against Trump's attempt to shift control over the nation's central banking system.
For crypto markets, this development matters more than it might seem on the surface. Central bank continuity and policy predictability directly shape liquidity conditions and macro sentiment. When there's instability at the Fed's leadership level, it typically creates uncertainty that ripples through all asset classes—including digital assets.
Cook's retention signals that the Fed's institutional independence remains intact, at least for now. That kind of stability can be a double-edged sword: on one hand, predictable monetary policy reduces wild swings; on the other, it means we're unlikely to see aggressive shifts in rate decisions anytime soon. Traders watching macro flows will want to keep close tabs on how this plays out, especially as inflation narratives continue to evolve.

The Federal Reserve has stabilized again. It seems the crypto market won't get the surprise of a rate cut in the short term... Is this ultimately good or bad for us?

Fed is still the same old story. Now the crypto market has to continue consolidating, no surprises.

The stability is good, but is there still any surprise in the crypto world...

Haha, the Fed has started that stability narrative again, but is this really good news for the crypto market? I don't think so.

Oh no, the Fed has stabilized again. I was hoping to see Trump stir up some trouble.
Once the Fed stabilizes a stablecoin price, there’s not much fluctuation. For short-term traders like us, this kind of "steady progress" is the most frustrating.
Cook staying on is a bit boring. I was planning to take advantage of leadership turmoil to make a quick profit... Without rate changes, it's hard to move the market.

Ah, it's another internal struggle at the Federal Reserve. It seems that Cook remaining in office would add stability to the crypto world but reduce opportunities.

The Fed remains stable, but that means no rate cuts in the short term... It's a bit of a headache for the crypto world.

The Federal Reserve's situation is actually not that simple... Sustained policies can indeed stabilize the market, but it also means we have to continue struggling in this interest rate environment.

Fed wins again, Trump's attempt to influence the Federal Reserve was indeed too naive... Now the crypto market can stabilize for a while, the annoying uncertainty has been temporarily suppressed.

Fed won again, but for the crypto world... we need to see clearly that stability ≠ growth rate.
