#大户持仓变化 The whispers of a power shift at the Federal Reserve are intensifying. If Kevin Woorh actually takes on the role of the next Chair, the impact on the entire crypto market could far exceed market expectations.
The latest market bets have already positioned Woorh as the top favorite. This guy's background is a bit intimidating—he was one of the youngest Federal Reserve governors in history and was outspoken against quantitative easing, criticizing that wave of massive liquidity as the main culprit of inflation. Now he has become a Stanford lecturer and hedge fund partner, firmly a top figure in Wall Street's academic circle.
If he really takes office, what might he do? Two directions are worth vigilance. First, he might accelerate the "balance sheet reduction" process. Woorh has always advocated that the Fed's balance sheet is bloated and needs significant downsizing. This is no joke—it means pulling a large amount of dollar liquidity from the market, directly squeezing asset prices. Second, although he supports rate cuts (believing the economy is healthy, especially with growth in AI), such rate cuts would be based on a more stringent tightening tone.
From the perspective of the crypto market, short-term rate cut expectations could be a positive signal. But the real game-changer lies in the systemic tightening of long-term liquidity. Major assets like $BTC and $ETH are highly sensitive to global liquidity, and a Woorh-style Fed would be more hawkish and resolute than Powell in pushing for balance sheet "slimming."
In other words, this is not just about a change of personnel but about redefining the core logic of monetary policy. The market, recently hit by Japan's rate hike, still has some capacity to cope with a new tightening cycle from the Fed. It's still time to evaluate your positions.

Wosh's rise to power really directly drained the liquidity, and the entire market will have to shrink then.

Is Wosh taking the stage? Then we need to quickly reduce our positions; liquidity tightening will cause BTC to get hit.
Damn, the combination of balance sheet reduction and hawkish stance is more aggressive than Powell. Large funds should start to exit.
They keep shouting about rate cuts as positive, but what they’re actually doing is easing on a tightening tone... They’re fooling no one.
Japan just dealt a blow, and now the Federal Reserve wants to deliver a second punch? Truly incredible.
I just want to know, if Wosh really takes over, which coins can survive until the next bull market?
Basically, they want to drain liquidity, so what’s the point of playing around now? Why wait to exit?
How powerful is the balance sheet reduction weapon? Feels even more aggressive than rate hikes... I’m a bit nervous about my positions.

Vosh taking the stage? Then our liquidity will have to be squeezed out slowly. Once the balance sheet reduction starts, it will directly cause a market crash, and interest rate cuts won't be able to save it.

Wasch taking the stage? Oh my, he's directly shrinking the balance sheet. BTC probably won't drop all the way to grandma's house.

Wosh taking the stage is really a bomb, directly pulling liquidity is a deadly move.

Vosh takes the stage? Then BTC is doomed, shrinking the balance sheet is the real killer move.

Oh no, another hawkish stance? The good days of our three years of flooding might be coming to an end. But on the other hand, I've been waiting for balance sheet reduction for years, and I'm a bit numb to it. Anyway, the cycle theory tells me that the tides will turn eventually. The harder the drop now, the greater the rebound space in three years. Instead of worrying about how much will reduce liquidity, it’s better to think about how to accumulate chips during the bear market. Anyway, we're already used to losses, so might as well consider it as saving up cheap Bitcoin, haha.

That guy Vosh is more hawkish on stage than Powell? Then the balance sheet reduction has to come hard. The crypto world better be prepared for bloodletting.

Vosh coming to power? Then let's just wait to be cut off, as the shrinking of the balance sheet is more effective than the sweet taste of interest rate cuts.
