📌 What does that mean for Crypto?
If the Fed decides to raise rates by 25 basis points, we may initially see: 🔻 pressure on BTC and high-risk assets
💵 a stronger U.S. dollar
📉 higher market volatility
But the most important thing isn’t the decision alone—it’s the Fed’s language and its expectations for the next steps.
And if the Fed surprises the markets by holding rates steady, we may see: 🚀 an improvement in risk appetite
📈 support for Bitcoin and stocks
🥇 gold maintaining strength amid inflation fears.
⚠️ My opinion: the market may have already priced in a large part of the rate-hike scenario, so BTC’s reaction after the decision could be more important than the decision itself.
