The Illusion of Rate Cuts: Why the Market Falls Instead of Rising 😓.
You need to know this truth 🤯:
In the last three months, Trump has been talking about rate cuts. Many cryptocurrency enthusiasts assumed that the moment a cut happened, wallets would soar and profits would come. Similar promises were made during his presidency, creating unrealistic expectations that 'a big increase is guaranteed.'
But what really happened?
Instead of a massive rally, the market fell nearly 80% after these hopes. Retail traders once again became liquidity for the big players. Only Bitcoin and a handful of major coins delivered any significant performance.
Fast forward to Powell's speech on August 22, where he suggested possible cuts in September. The market reacted quickly: Ethereum jumped from 4046 to 4955, hitting a new ATH, and the excitement spread. But within a day of consolidation, $ETH returned close to 4350 and the market followed.
The pattern is clear: this entire cycle is less about promised increases and more about liquidity grabs. Many are waiting for another 'big altcoin season' after the rate cuts, but think again. $BTC, ETH, $SOL, $XRP, $BNB, and others have already made their moves.
With thousands of altcoins circulating today, relying on 'the next big increase' is dangerous. This market rewards timing, patience, and smart positioning, not blind hope.
