Crypto News Today: Fed Rate Cut Meets Political Shake-Up
Fed expected to cut rates by 25bps this week — historically bullish for BTC and alts.
Trump admin pushes to oust Fed Gov. Lisa Cook; pro-crypto economist Stephen Miran confirmed to Fed board.

Gold and Bitcoin already rallying, pricing in looser conditions.
Fed Decision + Political Drama
The Fed is set to restart rate cuts this week, a move seen as positive for risk assets. But political turmoil surrounds the central bank as the Trump administration challenges Fed independence.
Crypto Market Impact
Liquidity from money market funds and mortgage debt could flow into DeFi and RWAs.
ETH ($4,525) and SOL ($235) act like growth tech stocks, highly rate-sensitive.
Bitcoin remains the “quality crypto,” less sensitive but still reactive to policy shifts.
Market Already Reacting
Gold and Bitcoin are rallying ahead of the decision, signaling expectations of looser policy. Historically, rate cuts near market highs have fueled strong equity and crypto gains.
