The Final Candidate for Fed Chair: What Is Rick Rieder's Stance on Crypto?

This article discusses Rick Rieder, the Chief Investment Officer of Global Fixed Income at BlackRock, who is being considered by former President Trump as a potential candidate to replace Jerome Powell as the next Chair of the Federal Reserve. Rieder is the final candidate to be vetted, alongside Kevin Warsh, Kevin Hassett, and Christopher Waller. Unlike the other candidates, Rieder has less government experience but is notably pro-cryptocurrency. He has publicly expressed positive views on Bitcoin, referring to it as a durable asset and a viable alternative to gold. He believes digital payment systems and cryptocurrencies are here to stay and has advocated for including Bitcoin in investment portfolios as a hedge against fiat currency devaluation. Under his influence, BlackRock began investing in Bitcoin futures and later launched a successful Bitcoin ETF. If appointed, Rieder’s stance could lead to broader institutional adoption of crypto, support for lower interest rates (he has called for cuts to around 3%), and encouragement of developments in tokenization, stablecoins, and DeFi. However, according to Polymarket data at the time of writing, his probability of being selected was only 7%, the lowest among the candidates. The final decision is expected in January.

The Final Seat on the Fed Chair Candidate List: What Is Rick Rieder's Stance on Crypto?

Former US President Trump is set to interview Rick Rieder, BlackRock’s Global Chief Investment Officer of Fixed Income, as the fourth and final candidate to potentially replace Fed Chair Jerome Powell. The shortlist also includes former Fed Governor Kevin Warsh, National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett, and Fed Governor Christopher Waller. A decision is expected in January. Rieder, a longtime fixed-income expert with over 17 years at BlackRock, has publicly expressed pro-crypto views since 2020. He has described Bitcoin as a durable asset with long-term value, comparing it to gold and endorsing its role in hedging against currency devaluation. He has also disclosed personal Bitcoin holdings and led BlackRock’s early moves into Bitcoin futures and its successful spot Bitcoin ETF (IBIT). If selected, Rieder could bring a more crypto-friendly stance to the Fed. He has advocated for significant rate cuts to around 3%, which may benefit risk assets like crypto. His influence could encourage further institutional adoption and support developments in tokenization, stablecoins, and DeFi. As of the latest Polymarket data, Rieder’s probability of becoming Fed chair is low at 7%, though it recently increased by 6%. The frontrunners remain Warsh (40%) and Hassett (38%). If chosen, Rieder would still require Senate confirmation—a process that could take months.

US President Donald Trump Imposes 25% Tariff on Iran-Linked Trade, Will Crypto Market Feel the Pinch?

US President Donald Trump has announced an immediate 25% tariff on all trade with countries doing business with Iran, calling the order final. This follows his recent approval of a bipartisan sanctions bill imposing a 500% tariff on nations purchasing Russian energy products. The move may hinder international trade, with China, India, Germany, the UAE, and the EU likely impacted. China has already opposed the measure as coercive. For the crypto market, the tariffs could increase trade costs and inflation, potentially preventing the Federal Reserve from cutting rates and sustaining market volatility. The global crypto market cap has dipped slightly to $3.13 trillion, with tokens like ETH and SOL seeing declines, while BTC posted minor gains. Investors are advised to remain cautious amid ongoing uncertainty.

Bitcoin slips below miner costs: Will Trump’s 10% credit cap boost demand?

Bitcoin is currently trading below its estimated mining cost of around $101,600, a level that historically acts as a support floor as miners reduce selling pressure. This coincides with a potential market rebound, as outflows likely bottomed in late December. Meanwhile, former President Trump's proposal to cap credit card interest rates at 10% may restrict credit access for some borrowers, potentially driving new demand toward Bitcoin and DeFi as alternative financial systems. While these factors support a short-term price recovery, analysts caution that weak long-term liquidity could challenge any sustained rally.

What to Expect from the Crypto Market: How the Conflict Between Trump and the Fed Will Affect Prices

RBC Crypto presents an analysis by Anatoly Radchenko on the state of the cryptocurrency market as of January 12th. The key focus is the conflict between former US President Donald Trump and Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. Trump is pressuring the Fed to cut interest rates to provide cheaper credit, but Powell is resisting, leading to a reported criminal investigation. This political tension is causing the US dollar to weaken and is boosting gold and silver prices. Such pressure on the Fed and broader geopolitical risks (involving China-Taiwan, Iran-Israel, Venezuela, Cuba) are generally unfavorable for cryptocurrencies, as Middle East escalations have historically not benefited the asset class. Regarding market performance, Bitcoin (BTC) is trading around $90.5k, down 2.5% for the week. It is underperforming compared to Ethereum and Solana. Large holders continue to sell, and there is uncertainty around purchases by entities like Michael Saylor's Strategy company. Privacy coins like Monero (XMR) are seeing interest, but their performance is tied to the overall market strength of BTC and ETH. While positive narratives exist, such as Wells Fargo's $300 million Bitcoin purchase and rumors of crypto trading on Elon Musk's X platform, the analyst assesses the overall picture as negative. He states there is no strong catalyst for a rapid price increase, despite some investors accumulating BTC. The market lacks a convincing reason for a significant rally in the near term.

Trump "Gets Serious": Powell Faces Investigation, Interest Rate Dispute Escalates

US Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has publicly accused the US Department of Justice (DOJ) of threatening criminal charges to pressure the Fed into aligning interest rate policy with former President Donald Trump's demands. In a rare video statement, Powell condemned the action as an unprecedented attack on the central bank’s independence. The investigation, initiated by the Washington DC US Attorney’s office, focuses on allegations that Powell misled Congress regarding a $250 million renovation project at the Fed’s headquarters. The conflict stems from Trump's longstanding criticism of Powell for being too slow to cut interest rates. Since returning to office, Trump has intensified pressure on the Fed to lower rates to stimulate economic growth. Market reactions were immediate, with US stock index futures falling, gold and silver prices rising, and Bitcoin holding near $91,000. Powell reaffirmed the Fed’s commitment to data-driven policy, emphasizing its mandate to ensure price stability and maximize employment, not to yield to political influence. Legal experts suggest the evidence against Powell is weak, but if charges proceed, he could face resignation or even imprisonment. Meanwhile, speculation about his potential replacements includes Kevin Warsh and Kevin Hassett, both seen as favorable to Trump’s economic agenda. The situation has raised concerns about institutional independence and potential constitutional crisis.

New York Times Interview with Trump: 7 Key Points on the Logic of Power

In a rare two-hour Oval Office interview, President Trump outlined his power philosophy to The New York Times, stating his authority is constrained only by his own morality, not international law. Key points include: He has chosen the next Fed Chair, demanding they support his low-interest-rate agenda. He ruled out pardons for figures like SBF, Maduro, or Sean Combs. U.S. control over Venezuela's oil may last "much longer" than expected. He defended his family's crypto and business dealings, citing public indifference. On sovereignty, he insisted owning Greenland is psychologically crucial versus leasing. He revealed a "de-naturalization" plan targeting some naturalized citizens, particularly Somali-Americans, for fraud. The interview showcased his "coercive diplomacy," using unpredictability and military threats to influence nations, as seen in a call with Colombia's president during the meeting.

The Biggest Trading Theme of 2026: A Trump Who Can't Afford to Lose, The End of the International Order

In 2026, global markets face a paradigm shift driven by President Trump's political survival strategy ahead of the midterm elections. Facing a 20-point polling deficit, his administration is adopting aggressive deflationary measures—particularly by controlling energy resources to slash oil prices to $2.25 per gallon—to win the "affordability debate" and secure voter support. This includes leveraging Venezuela’s oil reserves, potentially crashing crude prices to $40–50, and undermining OPEC’s influence. Concurrently, Trump may deploy fiscal stimulus via "tariff rebates" of $2,000 for lower-income households, boosting consumer staples and reversing K-shaped economic trends. Geopolitically, these actions signal the end of the rules-based international order, elevating gold as a hedge and benefiting defense stocks, while emerging markets face heightened risk. The largest threat remains an AI-driven stock bubble; a 20–30% market correction could trigger recession and fiscal crisis, jeopardizing Trump’s re-election.
