#FedHoldsRates .

A report from the Conference Board Tuesday showed that concerns about job security are weighing on consumer confidence.
But Fed policymakers have to balance their worries about slower job growth with a watchful eye on inflation. Although price hikes have slowed, inflation remains well above the Fed's target of 2%.
The Federal Reserve held interest rates steady Wednesday, as expected, despite pressure from President $TRUMP
p for much lower borrowing costs.
The central bank has already cut its benchmark interest rate three times since September, making it cheaper to borrow money to buy a car, expand a business or carry a balance on a credit card. But with inflation still above target, most Fed policymakers voted to hold their target rate unchanged, in a range between 3.5 and 3.75%.
"The unemployment rate has shown some signs of stabilization," policymakers said in a statement. "Inflation remains somewhat elevated."
Fed governors Chris Waller and Stephen Miran dissented, saying they would have preferred to cut the benchmark rate by a quarter percentage point.
President $TRUMP p wants much lower interest rates, and he's waged an unusually aggressive campaign to push the Fed in that direction, even though the central bank is designed to be insulated from political interference.
Trump has tried to fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook, which would allow him to replace her with someone who would support bigger rate cuts. So far, that effort has been blocked by the Supreme Court.
Fed also targets Powell
Trump has also threatened to fire Fed Chairman Jerome Powell. While Powell has generally tried to avoid getting dragged into a conflict with the president, he pushed back earlier this month after the Justice Department served the central bank with subpoenas, as part of an investigation of cost overruns at the Fed's headquarters.
"Public service sometimes requires standing firm in the face of threats," Powell said in an unusually combative video statement. "This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions—or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation."
Powell's term as Fed chair ends in May, so he will likely preside over two more rate-setting meetings. Trump is expected to nominate a new Fed leader soon. Powell has the$BNB
option to remain on the Fed's governing board for two more years, which would limit the president's opportunities to install more malleable policymakers on the board.

zama is a blockchain infrastructure firm that specializes in fully homomorphic encryption (FHE). It represents a cryptography breakthrough that enables computation to happen on encrypted data without any decryption.
To put it in very simple terms, Zama allows developers to create decentralized apps that are capable of working with sensitive information without losing privacy at any given moment.
Applications of this technology include the use in private DeFi operations, on-chain identity and voting, private gaming logic, and protecting enterprise blockchain applications. Zama enables smart contracts to perform logic, and user data is encrypted, which solves one of the largest issues of blockchain adoption: privacy without loss of decentralization.
Why Binance Picked ZAMA
Binance does not simply pick up the projects of Pre-TGE. The decisions depend on technical innovation, relevance, long-term ecosystem value, and strong development teams.
Zama stands out because:
It has been the first homomorphic encryption in Web3.It deals with regulatory and enterprise privacy issues.It supports confidential smart contracts, which is a significant barrier to institutional adoption.It is consistent with the infrastructure-layer innovation of Binance.
Even before its official launch, Zama has surpassed $121 million in Total Value Shielded (TVS), showing how much potential it has. $Zama, being the 5th Pre-TGE project, is a shortlist of promising early-stage blockchain projects to launch on the Binance ecosystem. 
Tokenomics: How $ZAMA Is Structured
The $ZAMA token is the native token of the Zama Protocol. Holders use $$ZAMA or paying protocol fees and staking. There are 11 billiolon kens, but only 20% will be made available at the TGE in February. 

Bitcoin prices moved sharply lower on Thursday, January 29, 2026, as a mix of macro caution, geopolitical stress, and fading near-term liquidity weighed on risk appetite. After a brief one-day rebound earlier in the week, the broader crypto market reversed course. Total market capitalization fell about 1.7% to $3.06 trillion, while 90 of the top 100 digital assets traded in the red. Trading volumes remained elevated at $124 billion, signaling active repositioning rather than panic selling.

Bitcoin led the pullback among majors, falling roughly 5% intraday to $84,623 at one point before stabilizing higher. Ethereum followed with a sharper percentage decline, while most large-cap altcoins mirrored the move. The weakness comes as markets digest the US Federal Reserve’s first policy decision of 2026, persistent ETF outflows, and renewed geopolitical risk tied to Middle East tensions. Together, these forces are reinforcing a consolidation phase rather than signaling a full-blown trend reversal.

Bitcoin price today: what the numbers say
Bitcoin entered Thursday near $90,315 but slipped below the key $90,000 psychological level during Asian and early European trading. The session low printed around $87,653, before buyers stepped in. On a weekly basis, BTC is down about 2.4%, trading within a $86,319–$90,475 range. That range underscores a market caught between dip buyers and macro-driven sellers.Ethereum also lost ground, trading near $2,942, down about 2.5% on the day and 2.2% over the past week. ETH failed to hold above $3,000, a level that had acted as short-term support earlier in the month. Among other majors, Dogecoin slid roughly 4.5%, Solana fell more than 3%, and Litecoin dropped close to 6%. Binance Coin showed relative resilience with a near 1% decline, while Tron was the only gainer among the top ten.

The Nasdaq Crypto Index echoed the move, falling more than 5%, highlighting that the sell-off was broad-based rather than isolated to one token or sector.

Federal Reserve policy and liquidity remain the core driver
The immediate macro catalyst was the US Federal Reserve’s decision to hold interest rates steady at 3.50%–3.75%, a move that was widely expected by markets. The lack of a surprise limited downside volatility, but it also failed to provide fresh upside fuel. Fed Chair Jerome Powell offered no clear signal of imminent rate cuts, reinforcing the message that policy easing is unlikely until later in 2026 unless economic data weakens materially.

Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget, said the rate hold preserves existing liquidity without tightening conditions further, which can be constructive for crypto in the near term. However, she emphasized that the current environment favors consolidation over a breakout. In her view, Bitcoin is likely to trade in an $88,000–$91,000 range, with any push toward $95,000 requiring clearer macro support.

From a liquidity perspective, the absence of fresh capital is becoming more visible. US spot ETFs recorded net outflows of about $19.6 million, extending a multi-week trend that has seen more than $140 million leave the products this week alone. Last week’s outflows were even steeper, exceeding $1.3 billion. While spot Ethereum ETFs saw $28.1 million in inflows, the amounts were not large enough to offset broader market pressure.$BTC $ETH $BITCOIN
