Banking sector taking a hit amid fresh concerns over Fed independence, combined with proposals to cap credit card interest rates. The policy uncertainty around rate controls and central bank autonomy is weighing heavily on financial stocks. For crypto investors tracking macro trends, this kind of regulatory tension in traditional finance often signals broader policy shifts that eventually ripple into digital asset markets. Worth monitoring how these discussions develop.

Risks to the independence of the Fed + dual impact of interest rate controls, traditional finance is about to be repeatedly "scalped"... We've long been accustomed to policy uncertainty in crypto, and we're actually more aware of how to survive.

Traditional finance is stirring again, this time about the Fed's independence and interest rate controls... To be honest, these policy disputes are signals for our crypto circle, real signals of gold and silver. The more chaotic traditional finance gets, the more we have to think about where the funds will flow. Wake up, everyone.

Traditional finance gets all messed up, and our crypto circle might actually have a chance? Looking at these two things together is quite interesting.

Once the independence issue of the Fed arises, traditional finance starts to tremble. This wave definitely needs to be watched closely.

Fed is starting to stir things up again, bank stocks are about to suffer... By the way, could this eventually hit the crypto world? Need to keep a close eye.

ngl the fed's getting exposed here... they're literally playing defense while congress circles like wolves. the interest rate cap thing? textbook intervention that'll just create new dark forest opportunities for banks to extract value through other channels. they always do.
