Hassett, a core member of current U.S. President Trump’s economic advisory team and once a widely discussed candidate for Federal Reserve Chair, has recently made a bold prediction—he believes the United States is about to enter the “golden years of economic history.”



Specifically, this advisor publicly stated that unless there is a major unforeseen shock, the U.S. economy will demonstrate astonishing vitality. He was even blunt: if economic growth in the first half of next year is only 3%, he would be disappointed. In his view, growth could easily increase by another percentage point—reaching the 4% mark. Such optimism is quite rare in the current environment.

Even more noteworthy are the signals from the monetary policy front. Hassett once again confirmed market speculation: the Federal Reserve is very likely to take action at next week’s FOMC meeting and implement a new round of rate cuts. He emphasized that now is the right window for the central bank to cautiously ease monetary policy. This has basically nailed down expectations for a policy shift in December.

What does this combination mean for the cryptocurrency market?

First, if the U.S. economy really maintains nearly 4% robust expansion, global risk appetite will rise significantly. Historical experience shows that when economic growth expectations surge, investors are more willing to allocate to aggressive assets like stocks and cryptocurrencies.

Second, once rate cuts are implemented, it means lower capital costs. When cheap liquidity is released, a portion will inevitably seek high-return opportunities, and highly volatile assets like Bitcoin are often among the targets for such funds.

Finally, don’t forget that Hassett, as a core member of Trump’s economic team, is likely signaling the future policy direction—“high growth paired with monetary easing.” Looking back, the last crypto bull market’s macro backdrop was exactly this formula. The market seems to have caught a familiar scent again.

Golden years? Sounds good, but the real issue is that US debt is still there lol --- Cutting interest rates + high growth, this combo sounds so familiar... Last time I played it like this, my wallet took a big hit --- Hasset is again making remarks, every time this guy talks, Bitcoin tends to rise... Is this another trick? --- 4% growth rate? Nonsense, wait until the inflation data is out before blowing hot air --- Cheap liquidity flowing into the crypto space, I just want to see if this will turn into another game of taking over positions --- "Familiar taste," yeah, it was the same thing said last time... What’s the situation now? --- Can policy signals really be trusted? I still prefer on-chain data for comfort --- Bull market expectations are at the max, but I’m cautious. High growth + rate cuts = inflation expectations, which might not be good for crypto --- Wait, is he sure about "possible" rate cuts or "definite" rate cuts? The wording is so different

Uh, hold on, rate cuts + high growth? Is this some kind of windfall falling from the sky? --- Golden year? Feels like they say this every time, but how does it actually end? --- Once again it's about cheap liquidity chasing high returns, same old story every time. Is BTC about to take off? --- Hassett talks a good game, but when December comes, it'll probably reverse again. --- 4% growth sounds pretty good, but how much fresh cash would need to flow in for that? --- "That familiar feeling" haha, all I smell is hype. --- Can you really trust what this guy says? Just the other day he claimed the economy was rock solid. --- Wait, is he setting the stage for a rate cut or is he actually confident?

Rate cuts + high growth? This combo is really happening, feels like it's about to take off again.

Golden year? Rate cuts + high growth, I've seen this playbook before. Bitcoin is about to take off.

Hassett's prediction this time sounds like it's adding a buff to the bull market—rate cuts plus high growth, isn't that a sign of capital overflow? --- Here we go again... Every time they say "golden year," they said the same last time, and then what happened? --- Cheap liquidity pouring into crypto—is this for real or just another story? --- A 4% growth rate is indeed strong, but there are too many prerequisites. Saying "unless unforeseen" is basically saying nothing. --- Are rate cuts a sure thing now? Then why not just bottom-fish Bitcoin and be done with it? --- Wake up, everyone. History repeats but never copies itself exactly. Don’t get brainwashed by macro narratives. --- Already telling stories now? It's not even December yet. Is this building momentum or distributing?
