ChainCatcher news, HTX Research analyst Chloe (@ChloeTalk1) in the latest issue of the HTX DeepThink column analyzed the DJT token planned for release by the Trump Media Technology Group, stating that this is the first practical token led by a publicly listed media group in the United States, landing in a real social product scenario, marking a historic intersection between U.S. stocks and on-chain asset forms. The current market shows a high preference for "practical crypto assets," and DJT has hit the right market rhythm, possessing not only strong political IP and social heat but also real ecological closed-loop support, with growth potential expected to surpass short-term meme-type speculation.In addition, Chloe discussed the Federal Reserve's decision to maintain interest rates on May 8, believing it is facing a "dual dilemma": on one hand, inflation is clearly slowing down; on the other hand, the Federal Reserve's financial situation also poses substantial constraints on policy operations. If it hastily lowers interest rates by 0.25 to 0.3 percentage points, it would result in an annualized interest loss of about $20 billion, and could even raise questions about the independence of the Federal Reserve's monetary policy.
