As of June 18, 2025, following the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision announcement, **the policy to maintain the federal funds rate in the range of 4.25%-4.50%** is not the sole determining factor for the short-term fluctuations of BTC and ETH. Its impact should be assessed in conjunction with the wording of the policy statement, economic forecasts, and market expectations:
### 📉 **1. Direct Downside Risks (Dominated by Hawkish Signals)** 1. **Inflation Concerns Suppress Risk Appetite** - If the Federal Reserve emphasizes "inflation stubbornly above target" or "more time is needed to consider rate cuts", it will strengthen the hawkish stance, leading to a stronger dollar and tighter liquidity, potentially causing BTC and ETH to decline alongside U.S. stocks. - Historical data shows that the average decline in the crypto market within 24 hours after a hawkish decision is 3%-5% (e.g., BTC fell 4.2% after the May 2024 meeting).
2. **Delayed Rate Cut Expectations Weigh on Capital Inflows** - The market originally expected two rate cuts in 2025 (the first in September). If the dot plot suggests a delay until 2026, institutions may reduce their crypto asset holdings for risk aversion, slowing the inflow of funds into ETH spot ETFs (evidence of BlackRock's $120 million net redemption in a single day is already apparent).
---
### 📈 **2. Upside Opportunities (Triggered by Dovish Signals)** 1. **Economic Recession Suggests Accelerated Easing Expectations** - If the Federal Reserve lowers GDP growth forecasts or raises unemployment rate predictions (e.g., unemployment rate rising from 4.4% to 4.6%), the market may interpret this as "paving the way for rate cuts", leading to a rebound in risk assets. BTC is expected to break through the **$108,000** resistance, and ETH to test **$2,600**. - Dovish language (e.g., "closely monitoring the weak job market") may push BTC up by more than 5% in a single day.
2. **Marginal Improvement in Liquidity Expectations** - Although interest rates remain unchanged, if the statement removes phrases like "restrictive policies will continue" or suggests "future rate cut potential", it will boost market liquidity expectations, and the ETH/BTC exchange rate may stop declining and rebound.
---
### 🌐 **3. Indirect Influencing Factors Amplifying Volatility** 1. **Geopolitical Conflicts and Risk Aversion Sentiment** - Escalation of the Middle East situation (Israel-Iran conflict) raises oil prices. If the Federal Reserve does not mention "inflation is under control", it may exacerbate fears of "stagflation", triggering simultaneous sell-offs in the crypto market and U.S. stocks (VIX fear index spiking by 13%). - **Diversion of Safe-Haven Funds**: If U.S. stocks plunge, some funds may flow into BTC (as a "digital gold"), but ETH may experience a greater decline due to leveraged liquidation pressures.

According to a report by Reuters, Trump has requested the National Security Council to be on standby in the White House Situation Room, as he left the G7 summit early due to rising tensions between Israel and Iran. A few hours ago, Trump posted a concerning message on his social media platform Truth Social: "Everyone should evacuate Tehran immediately!" Meanwhile, U.S. press secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed that Trump arrived in Canada on Sunday to attend the annual G7 summit but left early due to the escalating situation.
In 2017, the State Bank of Vietnam issued an official letter prohibiting the use of cryptocurrencies as a legal payment method, but there was a lack of regulation regarding cryptocurrency ownership and P2P transactions, creating a legal gray area. The "National Blockchain Strategy 2024 - 2030" released in October 2024 aims to promote the application of blockchain in various fields, emphasizing regulated experiments through digital asset sandbox pilot projects.
#Metaplanet增持比特币 Let's talk about something real in our crypto circle! That listed company in Tokyo called Metaplanet has once again increased its Bitcoin holdings! Just this past weekend, Metaplanet's CEO directly announced: They invested 117 million dollars and acquired 1,112 Bitcoins! Calculating that, the average price per coin is about 105,000 dollars. This is quite significant, bringing their total Bitcoin holdings to exactly 10,000 coins! Just think about that scale! When do you think they started buying? Overall, the average acquisition cost for these 10,000 Bitcoins is around 94,700 dollars.
The quarter of $BTC 2 is the last accumulation time of the bull market. Refer to the four screenshots below, $BTC 4 hours is looking for the last needle in the Wyckoff accumulation phase C. $ETH is still using sideways movement to replace the decline in the second wave on the daily chart. The strategy for the entire month of June is that when there is a significant increase, if you hold profitable large-cap coins, you can reduce your position and continue to buy back in batches. If you incur losses, just hold. As mentioned before, we use the cosmic clock and Gann's lunar cycle time law for mutual verification, both pointing to an outbreak in the second half of the year, with the cosmic clock more accurately predicting that the main surge will occur in the third quarter in August.
#特朗普比特币金库 On March 6, 2025, Trump signed an executive order to establish a U.S. strategic Bitcoin reserve, utilizing approximately 200,000 Bitcoins (about 1% of the total supply) held by the government as a value storage asset, promising never to sell, to combat inflation and the national debt issue. This move fulfilled his campaign promise, aiming to make the U.S. the 'global cryptocurrency capital.' Trump also promoted pro-crypto policies, including appointing crypto-supportive officials and easing regulations, triggering a market frenzy, with Bitcoin prices once surpassing $100,000. However, the executive order did not clarify plans for reserves of other crypto assets, leading to market volatility, with Bitcoin prices dropping by about 5%. This action sparked controversy, with critics citing potential conflicts of interest and concerns that relaxed regulations could lead to market risks.
$ADA - Short-term trend: On the daily chart, ADA is consolidating within an ascending triangle, with the resistance level at the top of the triangle around $0.74 and a support trend line formed by higher lows around $0.63 to $0.67, indicating increased demand. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) hovers in the neutral zone between 55 and 60, leaving room for upward movement. The 50-day moving average (MA50) is on an upward trend and is about to form a golden cross with the 200-day moving average (MA200); if confirmed, this is a typical bullish signal. - Medium-term trend: The weekly chart shows a descending wedge formation, which is typically associated with bullish reversals. Once the upper trend line of the wedge is broken, the first technical target may be around $1.32, indicating significant potential for upward movement. - Key levels: Recent resistance is at $0.75, and support is at $0.58. If it breaks above $0.75, it may rise to $0.83; if it falls below $0.58, it may correct to $0.50.
#卡尔达诺稳定币提案 Cardano ecosystem welcomes an epic operation! Founder Charles Hoskinson personally takes action, launching a liquidity plan for stablecoins that will shake the market. The core actions target two major strategies: 1. Allocating $100 million worth of ADA from the Cardano treasury (currently holding 1.7 billion #ADA) to be directly exchanged for the ecosystem's native stablecoin USDM. This move injects super strong liquidity into the stablecoin system, akin to implanting a blood-producing machine into the "veins" of cryptocurrency. 2. Even more explosive, Cardano will partner with Brevan Howard, a firm managing over $20 billion in assets. This institution, renowned in the traditional financial sector, will enter the crypto space with a professional market-making team and risk control system, focusing on two battlegrounds: #TVL (Total Value Locked) breakout battle: activating asset accumulation within DeFi protocols in the ecosystem through institutional-level strategies. Liquidity market-making revolution: using algorithmic trading engines to completely solve the slippage issue in stablecoin exchanges. Dual-core drive: this operation is not merely about burning money but aims to construct a "central bank + investment bank" for the crypto world. Monetary aspect: creating a self-circulating stable currency system within the ecosystem through a two-way exchange mechanism between ADA and USDM.
Short-term resistance level 105500 for $ETH , resistance level 2550 for ETH. Regardless of whether you are stuck or want to open a position, you can consider trying a short position here. After the US stock market opens at night, we may see a good return. The EMA30 moving average for Bitcoin is 104800, the EMA60 daily moving average is 101350, and the EMA200 moving average is 92600. These levels are all key points. If it breaks below the EMA200, which is 93000, it would indicate a bear market (the probability of this is very low). So what should we do at this time? It's the same as before; those with enough positions should gradually buy the dips at the above key points and wait for a bull market.

#纳斯达克加密ETF扩容 Think about a few years ago, traditional financial institutions scoffed at cryptocurrencies, considering them a 'Ponzi scheme.' And now? Giants like BlackRock and Fidelity have entered the market, rushing to issue Bitcoin spot ETFs. What does this indicate? It indicates that they have recognized the potential of cryptocurrencies and the demand from customers. The advantage of ETFs lies in lowering the investment threshold. In the past, if you wanted to buy Bitcoin, you had to register for an exchange account, learn complex trading processes, and worry about the security of your private keys. Now, it’s much easier; you can buy Bitcoin ETFs directly in your brokerage account, just like purchasing stocks. Furthermore, ETFs offer greater transparency and stricter regulation, making them more reassuring for institutional investors.
