“Bitcoin Flash Crash!!! The Federal Reserve Issues Rate Cut Warning Triggering a Crypto Market Mass Exodus”
Bitcoin experienced its largest drop in three months on Wednesday, with prices falling as much as 5.9% to $99,490. This pullback was primarily due to the Federal Reserve's signals of a more cautious approach towards future rate cuts, leading to an overall retreat in speculative investments in the market.
Despite the Federal Reserve's third consecutive cut in borrowing costs, its expectations for rate cuts in 2025 have significantly decreased, suggesting that future cuts may not come as quickly as the market anticipates. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell made it clear that the inflation issue still requires more progress, and the conditions for further rate cuts have yet to mature. This signal has put considerable pressure on risk assets, particularly Bitcoin.
Given the strong inflation and economic data in the United States, the Federal Reserve's cautious stance is not surprising. However, it undoubtedly serves as a catalyst for eliminating excessive speculation, especially after the U.S. elections when speculative sentiment in the market rapidly heated up, leading to significant volatility in risk assets like Bitcoin.
As the Federal Reserve gradually shifts its stance on rate cuts to a more cautious approach, market panic sentiment is gradually intensifying, and Bitcoin may face more challenges in the short term.
