Bitcoin is still seeking a bottom, with a key resistance level at 82,000.



Recently, a major piece of news has emerged in the market — significant changes in the frontrunners for the Federal Reserve Chair position. Kevin Hasset, who was widely favored, suddenly faces a strong rival. Trump revealed in an interview that former Fed Governor Kevin Wirth has now joined Hasset as a leading candidate on the Fed shortlist, a twist that caught many investors off guard.

Trump's statement at the time was "I think both Kevins are great," sounding neutral, but in reality, Hasset's predicted market winning probability has plummeted. For the crypto market, the choice of the Fed Chair directly impacts monetary policy direction, which in turn affects the performance of Bitcoin and other risk assets. Increased policy uncertainty may lead to heightened short-term volatility for BTC. The current support level is at 82,000; whether it can hold this line depends on upcoming policy signals and market sentiment.

Here we go again with this? The Federal Reserve Chair changes, and our coins have to shake along... If 82,000 breaks, it's really going to explode.

Policy uncertainties are causing disruptions again; we must hold firmly to the 82,000 level.
