Fed's Waller: Trump-induced crypto rally losing steam, euphoria fading

  • Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller states optimism in crypto markets post-Trump election is fading.
  • Waller notes renewed turbulence in digital assets, with Bitcoin sharply retreating from recent highs.
  • He suggests recent weakness reflects cooling post-election enthusiasm and failure to pass the "Clarity Act."
  • Waller emphasizes boom-and-bust cycles are inherent to crypto, calling them "winters."
  • Crypto's deeper integration with mainstream finance amplifies price swings, leading to risk adjustments and selloffs.
