🔴 BITCOIN STARTED FALLING AFTER THIS NEWS

The Federal Reserve is now expected to raise interest rates at its next meeting—and crypto traders clearly did not like it.$MSTR

The Fed recently kept rates unchanged at 3.5%–3.75%, but three officials voted for an immediate 0.25% hike. Markets are now pricing in roughly a 67% chance of a rate increase in September.

Higher rates usually strengthen the dollar and make safer investments more attractive. That can pull money away from risky assets like Bitcoin.

This is not just another random red candle. The market is preparing for tighter money—and if the Fed actually raises rates, Bitcoin and the wider crypto market could face even more pressure.
