$BTC 🚨 Fed Cuts Rates & BTC Reacts: A Quick Market Update 🚨
The U.S. Federal Reserve finally made its move, cutting interest rates by 25 basis points (0.25%) for the first time this year.

By this morning, BTC surged back to a stunning $117,740, proving its resilience and bullish momentum.
Why the initial confusion? 🤔
· Some might have hoped for a larger 50bps cut.
· The market was digesting the Fed's "dot plot," which suggests continued rate cuts into 2027, potentially bottoming at 3.1%. This is a long-term bullish signal for risk-on assets like Bitcoin!
