#数字货币市场调整 $BTC $ETH

Last Monday, (, November 18, ), two big shots from the Federal Reserve spoke again, and the market couldn't hold up after listening.

First, let's talk about Waller, the board member. He noticed that the labor market is a bit weak, and high interest rates are dragging down ordinary people's consumption. His stance is very clear - a 25 basis point cut in December, which is called "risk management"; it's never wrong to be cautious.

What about Vice Chairman Jefferson? His position is much more subtle. He also sees the weakening employment data but emphasizes that we are close to a neutral interest rate now, and we need to take it slow; we can't rush into cuts. In his words, it is "prudent progress."

Two people's viewpoints clash, but the crypto market directly crashes.

On that day, Bitcoin fell below $90,000, Ethereum couldn’t hold $3,000, and the fear index shot up. Why did this happen? The core issue is the impact of interest rate expectations.

The logic is simple: when the Federal Reserve maintains a high interest rate environment, market liquidity tightens. At this time, assets like Bitcoin, which do not generate interest, have no advantage compared to high-interest dollars. Furthermore, as investors' risk appetite shrinks, funds naturally flee from high-volatility assets like cryptocurrencies and tech stocks into safer assets like bonds.

In simple terms, the crypto market is currently being pressed down by the uncertainty of macro policies.
