Chaos at the Fed: Trump vs Powell, Freefall or Just Costly Renovations?

Fed Building and Overrun Costs

In a social media post that surely woke the ghosts at the Federal Reserve, Trump accused Powell of orchestrating a renovation that cost three billion dollars.

According to him, the supposed fix-up that was so *horribly managed* should’ve only set back the government fifty million, tops. Because who needs fiscal discipline when you have $3 billion to burn? 🏗️🔥

Coinbase: The Ethereum Gold Rush Leader 🚀💰

Bernstein’s Monday morning love letter to investors came just as ether (ETH) reached heights not seen since 2021, all thanks to a sudden bout of investor infatuation and a broader altcoin rally.
