The selection of the new head of the Fed is now in the countdown stage, and this decision will profoundly affect the entire market landscape.

Who will take charge of the Fed, the global financial lifeline, affects not only the U.S. economy but also the crypto market, stocks, commodities, and nearly all asset classes will feel the shockwaves. Hawkish or dovish? Continue tightening or shift to easing? Subtle changes in these policy signals can often trigger significant volatility in major cryptocurrencies like BTC and ETH.

Historical experience tells us that every leadership change at the Fed is accompanied by a repricing of the market. A rate hike cycle depresses the valuations of risk assets, while expectations of a rate cut can increase the attractiveness of cryptocurrencies. Medium-cap coins like XRP are also not immune to this systemic impact.

The key is when the official announcement will be made. Once the candidate is confirmed, the market will inevitably react significantly. Those traders and investors who are already monitoring the signals often gain an advantage. At this stage, paying attention to this development is much wiser than chasing after the market starts moving.

The Fed's policy shift is often a process, with a time lag from signal release to actual execution. By seizing this window period, one can find the rhythm in the upcoming market changes.
