#FOMCMeeting What Is the FOMC & Why Markets Watch It

The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) is the U.S. Federal Reserve’s monetary policy body. It meets eight times a year to decide interest rates and balance sheet strategy. Its decisions directly influence global liquidity, inflation, and investor sentiment. For crypto investors, FOMC actions shape risk appetite: rate hikes usually drain liquidity, while signals of future easing often spark rallies in Bitcoin and altcoins. Watching both the rate decision and public comments by Fed Chair Jerome Powell is critical — especially for predicting short‑term volatility and positioning in digital assets.
