These written lines are a prediction of a possible scenario that could occur, not financial or investment advice.
That was the day the financial markets had been waiting for a while.
Exactly at two o'clock Eastern Time in America, the American Federal Reserve announced a significant cut in interest rates, a move that was supposed to ignite a rise in risky asset markets—led by Bitcoin.
But... the expected did not happen. Instead, the exact opposite occurred.
Chapter One: The calm before the storm
In a small trading room in Dubai, Samer, the crypto-obsessed trader, monitored the screen with unblinking eyes.
“This is it... the moment of explosion!” he said while preparing his trades.
And on social media, influential accounts were screaming:
“Rate cuts = Bitcoin$BTC to the moon!”
But the red candles began to creep in silently...
Then it turned into a fierce collapse that no one expected.
Chapter Two: The puzzle that confused the market
While other currencies trembled in decline, one analyst wrote in the newsroom:
“There is something illogical... why is Bitcoin collapsing even though the rate cut is supposed to weaken the dollar and strengthen assets?”
Theories began to spread like wildfire:
Market whales are liquidating huge positions before the announcement.
American hedge funds are exploiting the event to exit with historic profits.
Miners are selling at unprecedented volumes due to operating cost pressures.
Leaked reports talk about new regulatory frameworks being prepared behind the scenes.
Every new piece of news intensified the decline... and the panic.
Chapter Three: The midnight call
While Samer watches his portfolio bleed, his phone rang.
His old friend Rami was an employee at one of the investment banks.
Rami whispered in a low voice:
“Listen... today's rate cut wasn't a bullish announcement as everyone thinks.
The Fed is scared. The real numbers are much worse. The big investors are fleeing to liquidity... not to assets.”
He paused for a moment, then added:
“The storm hasn't started yet.”
Chapter Four: The painful truth
While the markets were boiling, a new report came out:
Huge institutions sold billions of Bitcoin$BTC hours before the rate announcement.
And the reason?
Fear of a real economic recession looms on the horizon.
The search for cash, the king of crises.
And he expected that the rate cut would not be enough to save the economy.
Here everyone understood the paradox:
Not all rate cuts are bullish... sometimes they are a cry for help.
Chapter Five: Rising from the ashes
At the time when platforms were filling up with liquidation of long positions, Samer noticed something strange:
Huge hidden buy orders began to appear in the depths.
New whales are entering...
New companies are seizing the opportunity...
A suspicious silence looms over the media.
Samer smiled as he saw the first small green candle appear:
“The next phase has begun...
Bitcoin collapses only to be reborn.”
Conclusion: The harsh lesson
After days, the market began to stabilize, and the analyses pointed in one direction:
Bitcoin$BTC does not move only based on Fed news...
but moves based on the fear and greed of the biggest players.
And the most important lesson?
When everyone expects a rise... the decline begins
And when terror looms... the real rise is born
