#FOMCMeeting 🏛️ What is the FOMC Meeting?

FOMC = Federal Open Market Committee

It is the committee of the Federal Reserve of the U.S. (the “Fed”) that decides on:

• Interest rates

• Monetary policies (money printing, inflation control)

• The economic direction of the country

It meets about 8 times a year and its decisions directly impact the price of BTC, ETH, and the entire crypto market.

📊 Why is it so important for crypto?

1. If interest rates rise:

👉 Investors tend to shy away from risky assets (like cryptocurrencies).

🔻 The price of BTC usually falls.

2. If rates drop or remain the same:

👉 It encourages investment in assets like Bitcoin.

🔺 The market tends to rise.

3. The Fed's language matters:

Sometimes they make no changes, but if they say “they may raise them later,” the market gets nervous.
