The previous post explained how oil makes its way into Bitcoin. This one digs one layer deeper: why does the Fed hike rates even though it knows the problem is oil?
Core inflation is only 2.4%, so in theory the Fed does not need to rush. Oil prices were driven up by war, and rate hikes cannot stop missiles. Yet it still hiked in September, and in December the market was also pricing in nearly a 90% chance of another hike.
The reason goes back 50 years.
In 1973, the oil embargo sent prices up fourfold, and US inflation surged to 12%. Later, when inflation fell back, then-Fed Chair Burns rushed

#Gate衍生品份额增幅全球第一 CoinDesk September report: Gate’s derivatives trading volume reached $396.4 billion (+38.2% month-on-month), surpassing Byb to rank third globally, with a 10.1% market share (the largest increase among top global exchanges); its 9.1% share of RWA perpetual contracts also ranked among the top three. The data looks impressive, but as an eight-year user, let me be blunt: trading volume is the “result,” not the “cause”—whether an exchange can continuously attract traders depends on liquidity, experience, and innovation. They are not an “either-or” choice, but a “three-part combo”:

$ETH Ethereum’s current price is 2505 and has been moving sideways for two days. What should we do this afternoon?
Looking at the 2-hour chart, the price has just climbed back from 2378, while EMA60 at 2522 and EMA90 at 2540 are exerting heavy pressure above. The medium-term bearish structure remains intact. Although MACD is showing signs of a bullish crossover, the red histogram bars are weak.
The 15-minute chart is even more frustrating, with the five moving averages clustered at 2507—2509 and the Bollinger Bands narrowing to just $17 of space—a typical sign before a major move.

Morning Silk Road nailed the call again! It locked in the pressure-driven pullback trend ahead of time, clearly avoided chasing the bottom, let the intraday bears play out with the trend, and fully mapped out the downside room, with support and stabilization appearing as expected.

#xauusd #Altın We expect the rise to continue.
As long as 4067 holds, the bullish outlook remains valid even if there is a pullback.
During a pullback, the blue box area may act as support, and buyers may emerge here.
With buyers entering, a close above the 4399 high is expected to lead to further upside.
We can monitor the 4402-4696-4893-4995-5597 resistance levels.
