#FedRateDecisionApproaches 🏦 Fed Meeting Preview: No Rate Cut — But Bitcoin Still at Risk
Markets broadly agree: no rate cut is expected at this FOMC meeting.
But for Bitcoin and risk assets, the real catalyst isn’t the decision — it’s Jerome Powell’s tone.
So the key question is: Does Powell stay hawkish, or start softening the message?
🦅 Case for a Hawkish Powell
Why he may stay tough:
• Inflation progress remains uneven
• Financial conditions have already eased via markets
• The Fed doesn’t want to re-ignite speculative excess
• Credibility risk if Powell signals victory too early
