Jerome Powell Speech Today Could Trigger Volatility in Crypto Markets If QE or Rate Cuts Are Announced
According to Crypto Rover, Jerome Powell is scheduled to speak today at 1 PM ET, and if he mentions quantitative easing (QE) or potential interest rate cuts, significant volatility is expected across both traditional and cryptocurrency markets. Traders should closely monitor the Federal Reserve Chair's comments for any references to monetary policy changes, as past announcements of QE or rate cuts have historically led to sharp price movements in Bitcoin and altcoins. Immediate reactions in crypto prices are likely if dovish signals are given, offering potential trading opportunities for both long and short positions (source: Crypto Rover via Twitter, June 2, 2025).
