It seems that politics are once again stirring up the market. In plain terms, it's just funds looking for opportunities to harvest profits. Powell being sued? This is just the perfect excuse for whales to create panic and accumulate positions—on-chain data has long shown that large investors have quietly been accumulating during this wave of expectations, while retail investors are still tangled up in the news.

Politics is politics, and the market is the market... but the reality is that the two are always intertwined. The lawsuit against Jay Powell basically reflects that regulators are becoming more chaotic, and those of us who trade are caught in the middle, just waiting to watch the show.

Bro, I've seen this trick too many times. Politics are politics, the crypto world is the crypto world, but in the end, it's still the retail investors footing the bill...

Politics is really starting to play with fire, is Powell going to be sued? This policy uncertainty is probably going to explode... It's hard for the market not to get chaotic this time.

Political "harvesting" again? The lawsuit against Powell has caused market panic, but honestly, this is most likely just a power game. The real concern isn't legal issues, but whether regulatory policies will also go haywire. The crypto community is just watching the show, but I think this is more smoke and mirrors than substance in the end.
