Key Drivers & Market Expectations

1. Fed Signals & Jackson Hole Momentum

Following Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s dovish tone at Jackson Hole, markets are speculating that a 25 basis point rate cut could come as early as September. This shift revitalized risk appetite—crypto surged in response. CME FedWatch now shows an 87% probability of a rate cut, while Polymarket places it around 80%.

2. Profit-Taking & Pre-Speech Caution

Prior to Powell’s remarks, crypto traders engaged in profit-taking—Bitcoin had pulled back roughly 10% from its mid-August high of $124K—reflecting a cautious stance amid uncertainty.

Futures markets trimmed the odds of a September cut from 92% to around 73%, hinting at tempered optimism.

Meanwhile, hot inflation data and risk-off sentiment influenced market pullbacks.

3. Technical Patterns & Derivatives Activity

Derivatives data indicates a wave of BTC profit-taking (~$300M in liquidations), not a shift towards bearish sentiment. Still, this contributes to short-term caution.

4. Crypto’s Sensitivity to Macro & Geo Events

Crypto remains highly sensitive to macroeconomic factors. While macro optimism supports gains, geopolitical tensions (e.g., global events) and surprising inflation/sticky data could spark volatility.
