đš Breaking for crypto traders Trump Fires Fed Governor Cook: what it means in crypto world!
President Trump says heâs firing Fed Governor Lisa Cook âfor cause,â an unprecedented move that could test the Fedâs independence in court.Â
Cook says the president lacks authority to remove her and wonât resign.Â
Why it matters now
Markets are reading this as a potential push toward a more dovish Fed board; analysts flag risk to credibility/independence.Â
Initial reaction:Â
softer USD and lower front-end yieldsâboth historically supportive for BTC risk-on bursts.Â
What Iâm watching
DXY/UST 2Y: further downside = tailwind for BTC/ETH.
Fed communication risk: any hint of politicization can spike volatility across risk assets.Â
Legal overhang:Â
if courts pause/remove action, knee-jerk moves may retrace.Â
  đĄđŻTrade framing (not financial advice)
1. If DXY breaks down on follow-through, look for BTC strength on dips; keep tight invalidation above prior DXY swing.
2. If yields rebound or courts freeze the dismissal, fade overextended alt pops and rotate back to BTC dominance.
3. Keep position sizes small into headlines; expect fast whipsaws around Fed/White House updates.

Central bank independence â Fedâs freedom from politics.
DXY â U.S. Dollar Index (measures dollarâs global strength).
2Y yields / 2Y Treasury â short-term U.S. government interest rates.
