According to Stock Talk (@stocktalkweekly), U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is being considered as a leading candidate to replace Jerome Powell as Federal Reserve Chair when Powell's term expires in May 2026. Traders should monitor this development closely, as changes in Fed leadership can significantly affect monetary policy, interest rates, and risk sentiment across the crypto market. Historically, shifts in Fed policy direction have influenced Bitcoin and altcoin price volatility, liquidity, and long-term adoption trends (source: Stock Talk, June 10, 2025).
