#数字资产市场观察 Recently, there has been a lot of buzz in the industry about the big news - "Powell is ready to throw in the towel". Let me start by pouring a bucket of cold water on everyone.

There are many onlookers, but few who understand the intricacies.

Three core points to expose this matter:

First, authoritative media have collectively fallen silent. The Federal Reserve's official website is quiet, the White House has not made a statement, and the Wall Street Journal has not shown any movement. Such a level of personnel change cannot be just brewing on social media.

Second, the legal framework is there. The term of the Federal Reserve Chairman is protected by law, so it cannot be changed just like that. Moreover, Powell's term has not yet reached its end, resigning at this point in time? The logic does not add up.

Third, the timeline doesn't match up. That day he had originally planned to give a speech at the Hoover Institution, but it was packaged by marketing accounts as a "late-night emergency closed-door meeting." This trick is played well enough.

But the question arises - since it's fake news, why does the market still fluctuate?

Because in December, the market is already on edge.

The pressure for institutional year-end settlement is tremendous, and the liquidity hasn't stabilized yet after the Thanksgiving holiday. Coupled with a certain former president's "greeting" to Powell, the market has become extremely sensitive. At this time, throwing in a smoke bomb will cause volatility to soar.

The crypto market thrives on this - the truth of the news doesn't matter, the key is to create panic. Once the panic sets in, the chips start flying everywhere.

Remember a rule: the more chaotic the news, the more large funds like to fish in troubled waters.

My judgment on this wave of rumors: there is an 80% chance it's groundless.

But will it crash? Yes. And it will happen very quickly.

The market never waits for the truth, only looking at the emotional thermometer. When the temperature spikes, prices jump around wildly. Especially in these past two weeks, which are already a period of fluctuation, plus the addition of such sudden news, the volatility can make you question your life.

Practical advice for everyone:

Don't get scared out of the game, and don't stubbornly push back. Keep a close eye on the movements of large holders and the Federal Reserve's subsequent statements. The real direction is often hidden in the market's reactions, not in the news headlines.

In a nutshell:

Most rumors are just bluffs, but the volatility is real; Powell is unlikely to leave, but your positions may very well be shaken off. Stay calm and don't let emotions take control.
