The attention of the financial world, from traditional stocks to the crypto ecosystem, is focused on the imminent decision of the Federal Reserve of the United States (Fed) regarding interest rates, scheduled for this Wednesday.

While the general expectation points to a continuity in interest rates, the true compass that will guide the markets will be the message from Jerome Powell, the head of the Fed, after the official announcement. Since that January which marked the end of a series of three consecutive cuts, rates have remained steady in the range of 4.25% to 4.5%.

The price of Bitcoin: what could happen after the Fed's decision

In this economic chessboard, the Fed navigates turbulent waters:

On one hand, there is the explicit pressure from President Donald Trump, who insists on the urgency of cutting rates to ward off the specter of recession.

On the other, the need to assess the impact of the trade policies implemented by the president, such as the tariff negotiations that have sown uncertainty.

Carolina Gama, Country Manager of Bitget for Argentina, tells iProUP: "More important than the decision itself will be the tone adopted by Jerome Powell in his speech."

"If he leans towards a loosening of monetary policy in the coming months, this would give a new boost to Bitcoin and other risk assets," she adds. For Gama, if a stricter stance is adopted, indicating that rates will remain high for longer, "it could generate additional pressure on the market."
