Well folks, the Fed looked at inflation, squinted, shrugged, and said, “Yeah, we’re good.” With just a 2.7% chance of a May rate cut (thank you, CME FedWatch), crypto traders everywhere are clutching their ledgers and whispering sweet nothings to Jerome Powell. But alas, daddy’s not cutting rates yet.
What does this mean for crypto? Expect fewer fireworks and more awkward sideways waddling. Bitcoin might hold its ground like a stubborn goat, but altcoins? They’re the interns—first to get thrown under the bus when the budget’s tight.
So, what's the play? Hedge with BTC, keep a cheeky stash of stablecoins, and maybe stake your way to sanity. Or just scream into the void—same effect, slightly more cathartic.
TL;DR: No Fed love yet. Crypto's in limbo. Adjust your bags accordingly.
