At 3:00 AM Beijing time tomorrow, the Federal Reserve's December meeting minutes will be released. What can this record tell us? One sentence: how intense the "battle" within the Federal Reserve is.



The last voting on interest rate cuts was quite interesting—9 in favor, 3 against. The reasons for opposition varied—some worried about too large a cut, others felt it wasn't enough. Even the Chair acknowledged that there are "strong disagreements" within the organization.

What does this disagreement mean? The policy's certainty is decreasing. Divergent opinions among Fed officials often indicate that future policy directions may become uncertain. For the crypto market, this uncertainty usually brings volatility—and volatility is where trading opportunities lie.

The minutes will reveal several key pieces of information: officials' views on the economic outlook, inflation expectations, and attitudes toward future interest rate trends. These details could influence the short-term movements of digital assets like BTC.

Rather than waiting for the market to slap you in the face, it's better to do your homework in advance. Carefully reading the minutes, identifying the disagreements, can often help you grasp that turning point.

The opposition between 9vs3, such a big internal disagreement? This is our opportunity; volatility is money.

That paper at 3 a.m. is essentially a record of a power game showdown. The 9-to-3 vote sounds neat and tidy, but internally, there has long been conflict. This is the real drama—uncertainty = liquidity trap = our midnight arbitrage zone.

9:3 split? That's the background music for my contract liquidation yesterday, lol.

According to voting data, the 9:3 split ratio has already confirmed the governance dilemma within the Federal Reserve. It is worth noting that the fragility of Token Weighted Voting was long written into the white paper and is now finally validated in reality. Volatility is an opportunity, but only if you thoroughly understand the game-theoretic equilibrium behind that minutes.

A 9 to 3 vote, the Federal Reserve is almost on the verge of internal conflict haha. How much drama can we expect to see from this minutes release?

The fierce internal conflict within the Federal Reserve is basically just giving us reasons to go long or short. Volatility = money. Just go for it.

9 vs 3, the internal disunity indicates they are not confident themselves. Volatility is coming; it's time to do some homework.
