Odaily Planet Daily News Matrixport said in its report that Bitcoin is optimistic about the fourth quarter. The report pointed out that Bitcoin is experiencing its most challenging quarter in the tradition, as it is currently in the middle of the third quarter. Bitcoin prices have begun to lose momentum recently, and coupled with the upcoming weak period, the challenging trading environment may continue for several weeks. However, Bitcoin is expected to have a good market in the fourth quarter. From a technical perspective, Bitcoin's trading range is narrowing, indicating that it will soon break out of the consolidation period. Based on the expectation of the Fed's rate cut and the positive fourth quarter, plus the possible boost from the results of the US presidential election, we expect Bitcoin to break out in the coming weeks. As expected, the Fed did not adjust the interest rate. Fed Chairman Powell has said that if inflation develops as expected, it is possible to decide to cut interest rates at the September meeting. Our inflation model also predicts that CPI will gradually fall over the next 12 months. The Fed's rate cuts may continue for several quarters, with a reduction of 25 basis points at each meeting. This will provide liquidity and stimulus for risky assets such as Bitcoin. The current interest rate is 5.25%, and the inflation rate is 3.0%. The difference between the two reflects the Fed's restrictive interest rate policy. This means that central banks are likely to cut interest rates significantly over the next 12 months. Bitcoin is about to enter its most challenging two months. Based on historical patterns, returns in August usually move sideways, while September enters a period of weak performance. There may be several factors that cause this cyclical pattern, including lower trading volume during the summer vacation and market uncertainty caused by traders waiting to see economic indicators and central bank policy decisions in the fall. If Trump wins the election, the series of policies and actions he will take will likely boost the crypto asset market. His administration may take a more favorable regulatory stance towards crypto assets, thereby reducing regulatory uncertainty and promoting innovation. Although Trump did not announce plans to use Bitcoin as a reserve asset as rumored, his attendance at the Nashville Bitcoin Conference still sent a positive signal.
