Major drop in crypto prices after Federal Reserve comments
Large-cap crypto assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum fell significantly after Fed Chair Jerome Powell indicated a December rate cut isn’t guaranteed. A stronger dollar and tighter financial conditions weighed on sentiment.$BTC $ETH
Reports say Binance, the crypto-exchange, helped facilitate a partnership tied to the Donald Trump family’s crypto firm in exchange for a pardon of founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ). This raises questions about regulatory risk, political influence in crypto, and the future of exchange access in the U.S. $BTC
Multichain wallet convenience = correlated risk: MetaMask now supports Bitcoin too, but that may increase risk MetaMask’s expansion to support Bitcoin (in addition to other chains) brings convenience—but also risk because one recovery phrase now spans multiple incompatible chains. Implication: As tooling becomes more convenient, user risk (e.g., wallet security, chain correlation) increases. Good for adoption, but users need to be cautious. $BTC #MarketPullback #FOMCMeeting
Global payments / remittances giant Western Union moves on-chain: plans a USD-backed stablecoin on Solana The company announced intention to issue a dollar-backed stablecoin via Solana and bring its remittance network on-chain. Implication: A boost for blockchain-based remittances and stablecoin adoption — strategic adoption rather than purely speculative. #MarketPullback #FOMCMeeting #solana
Whales in Bitcoin may soon face realised-loss risk: new data New “Bitcoin whales” (large holders) now control ~45% of the realised cap metric, indicating potential for losses if price drops further. Implication: Large-holder behaviour could amplify volatility — if they decide to sell, it may pressure price further. $BTC
XRP posts strong Q3 performance, outpacing Bitcoin, Ethereum & Solana XRP closed the quarter at a record ~$170.3 billion market cap, marking a major milestone. Implication: Altcoins (or non-Bitcoin projects) may continue to carve out space, especially when institutional or ecosystem developments support them. $XRP $BTC $ETH #MarketPullback #solana #FOMCMeeting

The UK lifts retail access to crypto ETPs, triggering a fee war among providers The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) in the UK allowed retail investment into crypto-ETNs. Providers slashed fees aggressively (e.g., 0.05% for Bitcoin ETPs) to capture inflows. Implication: More retail access + lower cost could be a structural tailwind for crypto investments — though regulatory scrutiny is heightened. $BTC #MarketPullback
Major institutions and tokenization gaining traction: JPMorgan Chase & Co. tokenizes a private-equity fund on blockchain The bank has used its blockchain platform to issue a tokenised version of a private-equity fund via its “Kinexys” platform. Implication: The “real-world asset tokenisation” theme continues to pick up steam — this may be a structural positive for crypto/blockchain infrastructure. #MarketPullback #FOMCMeeting
The broader crypto market sentiment is turning more bearish Some analysts highlight that sentiment for Bitcoin has slid, and the probability of a near-term pull-back has increased. Implication: Traders may reduce leverage, tighten risk, which could lead to lower liquidity and more volatile swings. #MarketPullback
Fed chair hints this may be the last rate cut of 2025 → increased caution in markets On the same day, the Fed’s chair signalled that the 25 bps rate cut might be the final one for this year, which spooked traders. Implication: If rates stay higher for longer, that may limit crypto’s upside (risk assets could suffer). #MarketPullback
Bitcoin slides to ~$110 K support after major macro events The crypto market lost about $80 billion after the Federal Reserve cut interest rates and a new U.S.–China trade deal triggered profit-taking. Bitcoin in particular tested the ~$110 000 level. Implication: Despite a rate cut (which often helps risk assets), the market is behaving cautiously — “sell the news” reaction. $BTC
