Trump to Interview Pro-Crypto Fed Governor for Top Position

A major shift in Federal Reserve leadership may be underway. President Trump is scheduled to interview Christopher Waller, a Federal Reserve governor known for his crypto-friendly stance, for the position of Fed Chair on Wednesday.

Waller's appointment could represent a meaningful change in the central bank's approach to cryptocurrency regulation and digital asset policy. His track record suggests greater openness toward blockchain innovation compared to traditional Fed leadership. Such a development could reshape the regulatory landscape for crypto markets and institutional adoption.

The interview marks a pivotal moment as the administration considers positioning crypto-forward leadership within America's monetary policy framework. Industry observers are closely monitoring how this potential transition might influence future Fed decisions on digital currencies and blockchain technology oversight.

If Waller takes over, will the Federal Reserve really start to loosen... It still feels a bit uncertain. --- Damn, if that really happens, how much will crypto regulation loosen? --- It's another one more time, let's see how the interview goes first. --- No hype, no blackening; being better than Powell is true. --- Oh my God, someone finally understands us. We've waited too long for this day. --- Alright, I believe it. There really is a chance this time. --- Waller? Never heard of him, let's wait and see how the show unfolds. --- That hit hard; I was just one guy short before. --- The policy direction has changed, is it still possible to jump on board now? --- This guy really gets it.

If Waller takes over, the Fed's attitude reversal is indeed a big signal, and institutions will flood in crazily this time. Alright, no need to worry about policies cutting us off anymore, finally someone who understands is in charge. Wait, can this really pass, or is it another false alarm... Damn, the crypto world has finally waited for this day, those old fossils couldn't handle it before. Damn, if it really pushes forward, what scene will FOMO institutions create... Now Bitcoin is about to break through the sky, Morgan Stanley and others can't sit still. By the way, does Waller really understand blockchain, or is he just talking? Bet 5 ETH, this weekend is going to explode.
