At 2PM UTC tomorrow, the Federal Reserve (FOMC) will announce its interest rate decision.
At this point, it's almost certain that there won’t be a rate cut — and the markets have already priced that in.

I also believe the Fed might announce the end of Quantitative Tightening (QT) — a policy that’s been in place since 2022.

If the Fed signals a bullish stance for the markets, this could be the turning point for a major altcoin reversal.
