As the FOMC meeting on January 29, 2025, approaches, the crypto market buzzes with anticipation. The Fed is widely expected to hold rates steady, with 97.3% of market participants betting on no changes, per CME’s FedWatch Tool. Bitcoin and altcoins are already gaining momentum ahead of the announcement.
Analysts like Sam Stovall predict rate cuts later in 2025, possibly in Q2 and Q4, which could boost liquidity and risk appetite for crypto. A dovish Fed may pave the way for a bullish rally in Bitcoin and beyond.
