Bitcoin fell in the month after all seven Fed hikes since 2016 that followed a one-meeting pause. Polymarket and CME FedWatch price an eighth on Dec. 9 at about 67%. The Federal Reserve hiked rates on Sept. 16 and paused on Oct. 28. Markets now price a second hike on Dec. 9. This report examines what that sequence has historically meant for Bitcoin , and how stocks fared alongside it. The record is one-sided. Bitcoin finished lower 30 days after all seven Fed hikes since 2016 that immediately followed a one-meeting pause, with a median decline of 2.4%.
