If Powell were really a good person, he wouldn't have messed with us so badly. Constantly messing with interest rates, the crypto market just collapses. LOL

Hasset is back to gushing about Rainbow Poo again. Who do you think he's fooling with this spiel?

Hassett says Powell is a good person? What is he implying... monetary policy is the key.

Is Powell a "good person"? Laughing out loud, this is just typical political rhetoric, brother. The key is whether his decisions can save the bunch of coins I hold😅

No matter how kind-hearted someone is, it can't change the fact that the Federal Reserve is shrinking its balance sheet. This round is really about harvesting retail investors' consensus.

Bitcoin's recent movements depend on his mood. As small retail investors, let's just watch as spectators.

Behind the nice words are all interests at play. Don't be fooled by this "good person" persona.

Powell: I am a good person. Market: down, down, down. Me: cut losses, cut losses, cut losses.

Hmm... that's why I only dare to ambush potential new stars now. I really can't understand the overall market anymore.

Really? Hashet is this hinting that Powell might loosen the grip... But then again, praising someone usually isn't a good sign.

Is Powell a good person? Haha, that's hilarious. The person who says that probably hasn't seen my wallet...

Hasset, are you hinting that Powell is about to loosen monetary policy? Come on, just verbal praise to stabilize the market—our wallets won't fall for that.

Hasset, what is he hinting at... Powell's recent decisions have made my investment portfolio a bit tense.
