Here's an interesting thought: what if Trump taps a supply-side economist like Arthur Laffer for the Federal Reserve chair role? The move would signal a major shift in monetary policy direction.
Laffer's whole philosophy centers on cutting rates and reducing regulatory friction—ideas that typically expand liquidity in financial markets. If implemented at the Fed level, this could reshape everything: looser monetary conditions often correlate with increased appetite for alternative assets, including crypto.
Historically, Reaganomics emphasized growth through lower rates and incentive structures. A Fed chairman cut from that cloth would likely favor accommodative policies over aggressive rate hikes. For traders and investors watching macro trends, that's worth paying attention to.
The nomination alone would be a bellwether moment—signaling whether we're heading toward policy easing or continued tightening. Either way, markets would probably react fast.

The expectation of interest rate cuts excites me. Can I really hold on this time... Last time, the technical analysis looked promising, but the MACD golden cross turned into a death cross in just a few days. Now I can only wait for the stop-loss level to save me.

It's the same story of interest rate cuts again, I'm tired of hearing it. When Laffer takes the stage, it's all about easing expectations. In the end, the real beneficiaries will still be those already making easy profits institutions; retail investors like us can only wait to be carried along.

Here it comes, Laffer is taking the stage and flooding the market? Then our crypto circle is saved.

If Laffer takes office, only then will we retail investors have a chance... Low interest rates directly benefit the alt season.
