**🚨 FOMC Update – Just Happened**
The Fed has increased the U.S. interest rate by 0.25%, and it now sits in the 3.75%–4.00% range. This is the first rate hike since 2023.
**What this means for crypto:** When rates rise, borrowing becomes more expensive, and easy money dries up in the market. The impact is generally negative for Bitcoin and altcoins.
**Fed Chairman Jerome Powell** held a press conference after the decision. Pay attention to these words:
🔹 "Further tightening" → more hikes may come (bearish signal)
🔹 "Data dependent" → no fixed plan yet (neutral)
🔹 "No preset path" → further hikes are not certain (bullish signal)
**Now watch these 3 things:**
📉 US 10-year yield
💵 Dollar Index (DXY)
₿ Bitcoin price
If yields and DXY fall and Bitcoin rises → the market is interpreting it positively (dovish).
If yields and DXY rise → the market is interpreting it negatively (hawkish).
Stay alert. 📊
