#美联储重启降息步伐 $ETH, $ASTER, $BNB



Came across some explosive news late at night—a direct statement from White House Council of Economic Advisers Chairman Hassett, predicting the Fed might cut rates at its next meeting. Keep in mind, the White House usually keeps mum on monetary policy, so this unusual statement sends a strong signal.

Why release this signal now? The pressure is immense.

US national debt has surpassed $30 trillion, with annual interest payments alone exceeding $1.2 trillion—like being stuck deeper and deeper in quicksand. Even worse, the Fed’s balance sheet shows bank reserves plummeted by $38.3 billion in just one week, tightening market liquidity to the breaking point. With debt costs mounting and liquidity tightening, a rate cut seems like an inevitable move.

What does this mean for the markets? If rate cut expectations materialize, global liquidity could flood back in. Traditional finance is already looking for a way out—Michael Saylor even envisions Bitcoin’s market cap hitting $200 trillion in 20 years, positioning it as a hedge against sovereign currency risk. Meanwhile, the IMF warns that widespread adoption of stablecoins could weaken central bank control—further proof that digital currencies are vying for future financial dominance.

Last night, I also saw that 77.86 million ASTER tokens were permanently burned by being sent to a black hole address. This kind of extreme deflationary move is common in the meme coin space. Whether it’s macro-level expectations of monetary easing or the internal supply-and-demand battle within crypto, the liquidity narrative might be taking center stage again.

Of course, everything above is just information gathering and logical deduction, not investment advice. Markets are highly volatile, so do your own research and manage your positions carefully.

Do you think this is a genuine policy shift signal or just a smokescreen to calm the markets? Will you adjust your holdings because of it? Share your thoughts in the comments.

Yeah, it is interesting that the White House made an unusual statement, but I think it was more out of necessity. The debt pressure is right there. But if they really cut rates, liquidity will definitely flow back, which is undoubtedly bullish for the crypto space. The key is when things actually start moving—no matter how good it sounds now, it's just talk on paper. As for ASTER's burn, that's a pretty aggressive move, but I'm honestly tired of the deflation narrative. What really matters are the actual trading volumes and ecosystem development.

Wait, is Hassett really going to loosen policy this time? I feel like the White House is testing the market's reaction. Should I rush to buy the ASTER dip? This burn operation feels a bit too theatrical, I keep thinking someone is sending out a smokescreen before dumping. Inflation isn’t completely down yet, and they’re already calling for rate cuts—this is just paying the political bill. I’m going to halve my position for now and wait until the official announcement. After all, it’s hard to say how much this White House card is really worth. If liquidity restarts, ETH should benefit, but only if this isn’t another “boy who cried wolf” situation.

The White House's rare statement does feel a bit different. But honestly, with such a huge debt hole, it's more like they're being forced than a real policy shift. Once the rate-cutting cycle begins and liquidity loosens, the coins in your hand will finally get some breathing room. That ASTER burn was pretty aggressive—deflation expectations combined with liquidity expectations could definitely drive some hype. The question is, how long can this heat last? Who knows. Personally, I'm testing the waters with a small position. If it turns out to be a smokescreen, I'll just take it as a lesson learned.

Is it for real? Another round of easing expectations? Feels like I hear this narrative three times a year. Don’t get too excited before the rate cuts actually happen. Let’s wait and see if liquidity really flows into the crypto space. ASTER’s token burn this time is pretty aggressive, but even with deflation, it won’t necessarily go up—you still need someone to buy in later. The 30 trillion debt pressure is definitely making them anxious, but that doesn’t mean Bitcoin will just take off. We still need to see if institutions are genuinely entering the market this time. I haven’t changed my positions at all—gonna wait until things are clearer. Don’t get fooled by macro narratives. You have to use your own judgment, everyone. Liquidity is indeed tight right now, but on the flip side, if easing does happen, where the money flows will still depend on the market trend. Saylor’s $200 trillion vision is just something to listen to—treat it as a story. Feels like this could be a real signal this time, but it’s hard to say how strong it’ll be.

Here we go again? The White House talks about rate cuts and everyone rushes in, but this time it might not be certain. Wait a minute, ASTER burned 7.78 million tokens so aggressively, that's impressive. A $30 trillion debt is really unsustainable, but even if rate cuts do happen, the crypto market may not necessarily benefit—during the last two rounds of money printing, we didn’t see crypto prices take off directly. Michael Saylor’s talk of $200 trillion sounds exciting, but 20 years is too far away; I’m more concerned about what happens next year. Don’t rush to add positions before rate cuts actually happen. Out of ten times this signal is released, eight times it’s a fake-out.

Wait, did the White House directly signal a rate cut? That's a pretty bold move. Once rates are cut and liquidity is unleashed, ETH might really take off this time. With $30 trillion in national debt looming, the Fed has no choice but to pump liquidity and save the day. ASTER burned 77.86 million tokens—this level of deflation is definitely hardcore, but I’ve seen too many meme coin tricks. But honestly, Saylor’s $200 trillion Bitcoin vision is just talk—don’t take it seriously. The problem is, the expectation of a rate cut and the actual rate cut are worlds apart. When the time comes, it’ll be another round of retail getting rekt. I’m optimistic about this wave of liquidity release, but I don’t dare go all in. After all, sometimes what looks like a smokescreen is actually the real deal.

Is it a real rate cut or just a smokescreen? Let's wait and see the final action. --- $30 trillion in debt? Damn, these numbers are getting more and more outrageous. --- That ASTER burn was really ruthless, the deflation narrative is back again. --- Once the rate cut is implemented, liquidity will be unleashed immediately, and then we'll see another round of capital inflows. --- Saylor's $200 trillion claim is a bit over the top, isn't it? Already hyping that up now? --- The sharp drop of $38.3 billion in reserves is a key detail, it really shows liquidity is tight. --- The White House speaking out this time is unusual, looks like the pressure is too big to pretend nothing's happening. --- Instead of guessing about rate cuts, better check if your own positions can withstand this round of volatility. --- IMF warning that stablecoins weaken central bank power is kind of funny, but it also shows our sector isn’t being ignored. --- Liquidity narrative is about to come back again, same old playbook.
