Bitcoin has set a new all-time high record of $73,750.07 and was forecasted to move forward to the 80K mark. Instead, the Bitcoin price dropped from $67,626 to $61,164 within a day.
A random bearish trend struck the crypto market, where all the cryptocurrencies suffered heavily, losing their weeks of gains. Even Bitcoin fell to $61,164, which was the lowest point up to now in this month.
Updates From the March Fed Meeting
The Fed meeting is over with a positive note where no changes were made in interest rates. It has brought back the bullish nature of crypto, leading to a surge in Bitcoin prices. The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), which organizes these Fed meetings, has kept the fund rate in between the range of 5.25% to 5.50%, keeping it constant for the last five meetings. However, the FOMC revealed their expectations of three rate cuts this year.
The Wednesday report mainly highlighted the expansion of the US economy, the low unemployment rate, and the ascended inflation rate. The official has continued forward with their targeted CPI inflation of 2% target, last seen in February 2021. The official statement says,
The Committee does not expect it will be appropriate to reduce the target range until it has gained greater confidence that inflation is moving sustainably toward 2 percent
As included in December projections, the Fed is expecting the lowest interest rate comparatively three times lower to reach 4.6% by the year-end. However, the market pricing might see a first cut in June, as there’s a 60% probability of that happening.
Based on Bitcoin’s performance around these meetings, it is clear that the Fed meeting does impact the crypto market because of its impact on the dollar value and monetary policies related to cryptocurrency.
