Yo everyone! Happy New Year's Eve!
As we say goodbye to 2025, the big news is from the Federal Reserve (the Fed). They just cut interest rates for the third time this year – in September, October, and that big December meeting. Rates are now at 3.5% to 3.75%. But their plan (called the dot plot) shows only one more cut in 2026. Will easy money keep helping crypto, or is it slowing down? Let's keep it simple🔥.
What happened this year: Jobs slowed down a bit, and unemployment went up slightly. So the Fed lowered rates three times (mostly 25 points each) to help the economy grow. This means cheaper loans, more money flowing around, and good vibes for stocks and crypto.
Why it's great for crypto: Lower rates push people to invest in things like Bitcoin instead of safe bank stuff. We've seen lots of money go into Bitcoin ETFs, DeFi giving better returns, and BTC staying strong around $88K to $90K right now.
The worry part: The December decision was close – 9 voted yes, 3 no (some wanted a bigger cut, others none). Inflation is still a little high, and US debt is over $38 trillion. The Fed is even buying some bonds again to keep things steady. More cuts? Only if jobs get worse or prices cool down more.
My easy advice: Be smart and ready for anything! If you like crypto long-term, these BTC prices are good for buying more. DeFi still pays way better than banks. But always do your own research (DYOR) – no one knows the future perfectly!.
What do you think? Will we get that one cut in 2026? BTC to $100K soon? Share your ideas below👇 Like if you're excited for next year, and tag your friends. Binance Square is the best place for chats like this.
