Markets on Edge: What the FOMC Meeting Could Mean for Crypto and Beyond

All eyes are on the latest Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting as traders and investors brace for potential shifts in U.S. monetary policy. With inflation data showing signs of persistence, speculation is growing over whether the Fed will keep interest rates steady or signal a future cut. While the Fed is widely expected to hold rates at current levels, any hint of a dovish tone could ignite risk assets—including cryptocurrencies.

The crypto market has already shown signs of movement in anticipation, with Bitcoin and Ethereum experiencing moderate volatility. Traders are closely watching Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s remarks for clues on inflation expectations, labor market trends, and the central bank's economic outlook.

A more accommodative stance could fuel bullish sentiment in crypto, while a hawkish surprise may trigger a pullback. The FOMC’s tone may shape the next wave of price action across both traditional and digital markets.
