The showdown between Donald Trump and the American Federal Reserve reaches an unprecedented threshold. On September 9, the federal court suspended the dismissal of Lisa Cook, Fed governor, decided by the American president.

Ahead of a strategic meeting on rates, this judicial halt revives the debate on the limits of executive power in conducting monetary policy.

The event marks a strategic turning point for Ethereum, now seen not merely as a speculative asset but as a pillar of future financial infrastructures.

The apparent calm conceals a palpable nervousness: that of a market that knows that everything can tip at the slightest jolt.

While markets were expecting a clear monetary shift in 2025, Jerome Powell, the chairman of the Federal Reserve, dampened hopes by pointing to an unexpected culprit: Trump.
