#FOMCMeeting The latest US inflation numbers are out, and they’re better than expected. The Consumer Price Index (CPI), which shows how fast prices are rising, came in lower than many thought. After the news, stock and crypto markets saw a small jump, and interest rates dropped a little.

Now, experts are waiting for an important FOMC meeting, happening on Tuesday and Wednesday this week. This meeting could signal the start of a new phase for markets, with some altcoins expected to benefit more than others if rate cuts eventually arrive.

According to AltcoinBuzz, while many tokens remain quiet, a few stand out for their strong growth and growing user base. The analyst’s first choice is Bitcoin, especially when interest rates drop. Historically, rate cuts have sent Bitcoin soaring, and it’s expected to break $110,000 in this cycle.

Altcoin 2: Solana (SOL)

Solana has climbed back, moving between $150 and $225 over the past few months. It’s leading in daily active users and transactions, leaving even Ethereum behind in some key metrics. Solana’s growing stablecoin market and rising transaction fees show its strong demand, and with cheaper fees and fast speeds, it’s one of the most user-friendly platforms out there.

Solana is also down by 2.65% and is trading at $153. SOL might soon target the next important resistance level sitting at $164.
