Fed Rate Expectations Can Shift Market Rates Before Decisions

Federal Reserve policy expectations can shift market interest rates before officials act, but historical research measures a broad crypto factor and does not establish how Bitcoin responds to a rate cut. The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) sets a target range for the federal funds rate, the rate banks pay to borrow overnight. The Fed does not set interest rates on crypto loans. Changes to its target can influence other interest rates and broader financial conditions, creating indirect channels between monetary policy and crypto markets.
