Trump’s New Pro-Bitcoin Fed Chair Named in Latest Epstein Files
Donald Trump's Fed chair nominee, Kevin Warsh, was named in recently released Jeffrey Epstein documents, sparking scrutiny.Summary
Kevin Warsh, President Trump's nominee to replace Jerome Powell as Federal Reserve Chair, was named in the latest batch of documents released by the Department of Justice related to Jeffrey Epstein. Warsh's name appears in a single email from a publicist listing invitees for a 2010 Christmas gathering in St. Barth's, though reports confirm there is no evidence he attended or engaged in any wrongdoing. This disclosure follows Trump's confirmation of Warsh, who is known as an inflation hawk favoring stricter monetary discipline and a narrower Fed mandate, and who has expressed skepticism about cryptocurrencies as money while acknowledging Bitcoin's store of value potential. The timing is sensitive, adding uncertainty to markets already concerned about policy shifts under the new nominee.
