3 Bullish Factors for Crypto - What happened at the FED meeting?

As I mentioned yesterday, a group of individuals controls the dollar's monetary policy.

Jerome Powell, their boss, is akin to a GOD in the world economy.

Yesterday, this group met and relayed their decisions to us plebs.

Here's a recap of their decisions:

  • The group led by Powell has decided not to change the main interest rates, keeping them at 5.25-5.50%, for the fifth meeting in a row.

  • FOMC signals that it will make 3 rate cuts in 2024. This is despite the fact that they think progress toward their goal of two percent inflation in the U.S. will be slower than expected.

  • US Fed Chair Powell said 'inflation is still too high' but still expects inflation to ease gradually

  • Bonus: Federal Reserve is not working on a CBDC, and has no plans to propose one

Why this matters?

The market perceived this news positively, with Bitcoin trending upwards and reclaiming its position at $67,000.

If the FED lowers interest rates this year, more money will flood the markets and asset prices will rise.

This is extremely bullish for Bitcoin.

3 bullish factors for Bitcoin this year:

  1. First, we had ETF approval.

  2. In 29 days, there will be a Bitcoin halving.

  3. Future FED rate cuts will put more money in the market.

If Bitcoin PUMP, the rest of crypto market will also pump.

The greatest threat to Ethereum, right now

The biggest threat to Ethereum is the SEC considering it a security.

The SEC aims to demonstrate that Ether is a security.

What is a security?

→ A security, in financial terms, is like a document or certificate that signifies ownership.

→ It gives you some rights to a company's assets or earnings. For example, if you buy a share in a company, that share is a security.

→ It indicates that you have a little piece of the company, and therefore, a right to a little part of the company's money or properties.

Currently, the Crypto community is split into two factions:

  • Those who believe that ETH is a security

  • And those who believe it's not

I’ll provide you with resources from both factions to analyze their arguments yourself.

Faction 1: Those who think that ETH is a security

1/Initially, the SEC regarded ETH as a security.
