The White House is pressuring credit card institutions to significantly cut interest rates—reducing them directly from the original 20-30% down to 10%. The logic behind this is not hard to see. On the surface, it is to protect consumers, but in essence, it is to indirectly release liquidity by lowering financing costs, approaching the effects of a new round of easing policies. This approach means that money in the market will be cheaper and more abundant. For financial markets, abundant liquidity often signals an upward cycle for risk assets. As a high-risk, highly liquid asset class, cryptocurrencies tend to attract more attention and influx of funds in such an easing environment. In other words, policy-level liquidity injections usually boost the attractiveness of risk-preference assets.
