Trump lauds Chris Waller as ‘great’ after Fed chair interview, will pick within weeks

President Donald Trump praised Federal Reserve chair nominee Chris Waller as "great" and "fantastic," confirming he will announce his selection for the role within weeks. Waller, who has expressed crypto-friendly views, is among three or four candidates on the shortlist. According to prediction platform Polymarket, Waller currently has a 14% chance of selection, trailing crypto-supportive White House adviser Kevin Hassett (53%) and former Fed governor Kevin Warsh (28%). The crypto industry is closely monitoring the appointment due to the Fed's influence on interest rates, which significantly impact digital asset markets. Lower rates often drive investors toward higher-risk investments like cryptocurrencies.

Global debt markets show dollar dominance moves in cycles, US Fed says

A new Federal Reserve discussion paper reveals that the U.S. dollar’s dominance in global debt markets has moved in cycles over the past 60 years, with no clear long-term trend toward either dollarization or de-dollarization. The study identifies three distinct "dollarization waves" since the 1960s, showing currency usage shifts are cyclical rather than structural. As of 2024, emerging markets still rely heavily on dollar-denominated debt, which makes up about 80% of their international bonds. Meanwhile, the rise of dollar-pegged stablecoins like USDT and USDC—which together represent 85% of the $309.6 billion stablecoin market—has reinforced dollar dominance. These stablecoins are backed significantly by U.S. Treasury holdings, making their issuers major holders of U.S. government debt. The report concludes that despite vulnerabilities, the dollar’s global role remains unchallenged due to a lack of alternatives. Efforts to internationalize other currencies, including the Chinese renminbi, have seen limited success. European policymakers have expressed concern over the growing influence of dollar-backed stablecoins.

Why Bitcoin prices fell as Asian markets mirrored Wall Street losses

Bitcoin's price dropped 5.59% on December 17th, mirroring declines in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq which hit three-week lows. The sell-off was driven by weakened tech stocks and concerns over AI trade sustainability. The U.S. Federal Reserve's signal to potentially pause interest rate cuts further dampened risk appetite. Asian markets followed suit, with Japan's Nikkei and South Korea's KOSPI also declining. Bitcoin briefly fell to $85.7k before recovering slightly to $87k. The volatility resulted in $158 million in BTC liquidations and a total crypto market wipeout of $543 million. Technical analysis indicates a bearish structure break, with potential further declines toward the $82k–$83k or even $74k liquidity zones. Traders are advised to prepare for continued downward pressure.

Bitcoin trips at $90K despite CPI showing curbed US inflation: What gives?

Bitcoin approached $90,000 after U.S. November CPI inflation came in lower than expected at 2.7% year-over-year, renewing market risk appetite. The rally was driven by new long positions rather than short covering, with open interest rising. On-chain data indicates a stabilization phase rather than panic selling, with metrics like NUPL and SOPR showing loss absorption and coins being sold near cost. However, the move is seen as liquidity-driven and impulsive, leaving room for short-term pullbacks. A key technical hurdle is reclaiming $90,000, with a close above potentially targeting $90,500–$92,000. A rejection could lead to a retest of $83,800. The Bank of Japan’s upcoming rate decision remains a final macro risk for the year.

Bitcoin hunts liquidity as US CPI inflation drops to lowest since 2021

US CPI inflation dropped to 2.7% year-over-year in November, the lowest level since March 2021, significantly below expectations. This led to increased market volatility, with Bitcoin briefly surpassing $89,000 before retracing. The unexpected decline fuels expectations of Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, with markets pricing in a 26.6% probability of a cut in January. Analysts note Bitcoin's price action resembles early 2025 patterns, suggesting potential further downside toward $75,000. Over $630 million in crypto liquidations occurred amid ongoing volatility and perceived market manipulation.

Huobi Growth Academy | Crypto Market Macro Report: Liquidity Repricing Amid Fed Rate Cuts, BOJ Rate Hikes, and the Christmas Holiday Season

The recent volatility in the cryptocurrency market is driven by the convergence of three key macro factors: the Fed's rate cut, the Bank of Japan's anticipated rate hike, and reduced liquidity during the Christmas holiday period. The Fed's 25-basis-point cut did not signal the start of a sustained easing cycle; instead, it reflected a cautious stance on future liquidity, disappointing markets expecting more aggressive easing. This led to a repricing of risk assets, including cryptocurrencies. Meanwhile, the BoJ’s expected 0.75% rate hike threatens to disrupt the yen carry trade—a foundational source of global liquidity. This could trigger synchronized deleveraging across risk assets, as seen in past episodes of JPY-driven market stress. Compounding these shifts, the Christmas holiday season reduces market depth and liquidity, amplifying price movements and increasing volatility. Together, these factors suggest a period of elevated uncertainty and structural adjustment for crypto markets, rather than a definitive end to the broader trend.

Will Japan's Interest Rate Hike Trigger a Global Liquidity Shock?

As the Bank of Japan's December 19 monetary policy meeting approaches, market concerns are rising over a potential hawkish interest rate hike. A report by Western Securities on December 16 analyzes whether this move could end the era of cheap yen and trigger a global liquidity crisis. Key drivers for a rate hike include Japan’s sustained inflation above the 2% target, low unemployment supporting wage growth, and expansionary fiscal policy. These factors may push the BOJ toward tightening, raising fears of unwinding large-scale carry trades and causing global financial stress. However, the report suggests the most dangerous phase of liquidity shock may have already passed. Previous rate hikes in July and January had diminishing market impact, speculative short positions in yen have largely been closed, and the macro environment—including a resilient U.S. economy and Fed easing—reduces urgency for rapid unwinding. The Fed’s expanded balance sheet also acts as a buffer. Despite theoretical stability, global markets remain fragile after a six-year bull run, with elevated valuations and AI-related泡沫 concerns. A BOJ hike could act as a catalyst for a liquidity shock, though any sharp sell-off may prompt stronger Fed easing, leading to a quick recovery. Investors are advised to monitor the situation closely. If U.S. markets experience repeated “stock-bond-currency triple sell-offs,” it may signal a liquidity crisis. Over the medium term, global monetary easing is expected to continue, supporting gold and China assets—especially AH shares—on yuan appreciation and capital inflows. U.S. stocks and bonds may face volatility.
