It's not that the Federal Reserve has actually raised interest rates, but that the bond market has already "preemptively priced in" a rate hike.
U.S. Treasury yields are rising across the board, indicating that the market is re-pricing: inflation may be hard to contain, rate cuts could be delayed, and a rate hike is not ruled out. This is more significant than simply "bonds falling," because U.S. Treasury yields are the anchor for global asset pricing.
Impact on the crypto world: short-term bearish, especially for altcoins and Meme coins.
The crypto market's biggest fear is not just "high interest rates," but a combination of the following⬇️
Rising U.S. Treasury yields + strengthening dollar + declining rate cut expectations + withdrawal of leveraged funds.
