【Crypto World】January 10 (UTC+8) The Federal Reserve officials announced the list of chairmen and vice chairmen of the boards of 12 regional banks for this year. Among them, Lal Karsanbhai, CEO of Emerson Electric, will serve as Chairman of the St. Louis Fed Board, and Tim Sweeney, CEO of Liberty Mutual Insurance, will serve as Vice Chairman of the Boston Fed Board.

The list also includes many heavyweight figures—former leaders of other large enterprises as well as members of leadership teams from small businesses and non-profit organizations.

Why is this worth paying attention to? Because regional Fed directors regularly meet with Federal Reserve policymakers. Fed officials have explicitly stated that these directors’ views on the economic situation directly influence their interest rate decision-making process. In other words, these individuals’ economic perspectives will permeate into the Fed’s policy formulation.

For crypto enthusiasts, the Fed’s policy orientation has always been one of the key factors influencing the price fluctuations of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Once the Fed’s interest rate policies or liquidity stance change, it often triggers a chain reaction in the market. Therefore, the economic viewpoints represented by this board list indirectly influence the macro environment of the entire crypto market.
