The Fed’s Interest Rate Decision Weighs on the Market
Immediately following that, the Fed’s decision to raise interest rates increased pressure on Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies (non-yielding assets) that do not generate interest. Tight monetary policy measures reduce liquidity, which in the short term dampens investors’ risk appetite.
What Should Investors Do in This Situation?
Avoid Panic Selling: Looking at historical data, although the Fed’s tightening cycles can be disruptive in the short term, the market has managed to reach new highs in the medium and long term as institutional adaptation continues.

Watch Support Levels: For $BTC , the $75,000 psychological support level is crucial. Staying above this level will be a sign that the market has digested the news.
