Bitcoin sets the pace, and altcoins usually follow. I’m sticking to my plan after the US Federal Reserve meeting.



Here’s how I see it: if the Fed lowers interest rates, it means there’s more money available in the market, and people feel more willing to take risks. To me, that’s a clear sign that crypto could bounce back, so it’s time to expect some upward movement. In this story, Bitcoin is the leader, and altcoins follow it almost like they’re connected by a rope. When Bitcoin moves, other coins react quickly and sometimes even stronger, and that’s when the market really comes alive. I want movement, and preferably upwards but, of course, the market always has its own mind.

Let’s be clear about the Fed. People throw around the term like they understand everything, but even I’m still learning. The Federal Reserve is basically the central bank of the US, the “bank of all banks.” It controls how cheap or expensive money is. When rates go up, borrowing money becomes costly like chocolate with very few nuts you want it, but it’s pricey. When rates go down, money flows more freely into markets, like spring rain soaking the earth. People become bolder, invest more, and take risks. That’s when crypto can surge, and sometimes I wonder: were we just waiting for this moment?

Right now, my approach is gradual entry. I keep part of my funds in GT and another part in USDT, a stablecoin, so I always have a reserve ready to act when the right opportunity comes. It’s my safety net: stable funds that allow me to act calmly. Since I’m relatively new and don’t have huge reserves, protecting my savings is key. Diversifying across coins makes sense too I’m keeping an eye on BTC, ETH, BNB, and SOL for future opportunities.

I also reserve a small portion for trading when conditions feel safe. The first minutes after major news are often chaotic: prices can spike or drop suddenly. If the market jumps too fast, I wait for it to settle before entering. If it falls sharply, I look for a chance to buy at the bottom. My golden rule: buy low, sell high. Panic doesn’t work for me; patience does. Money has always been hard-earned for me, so I choose caution with confidence.

So, here’s my perspective: a Fed rate cut is a positive signal for crypto. I’ll stick to my plan, watch Bitcoin lead the way, enter gradually, and keep reserves for flexibility. My strategy is simple, steady, and solid like the foundation of a skyscraper. And yes, I feel proud of thinking it through!

Of course, my inner voice keeps me in check:

Are you sure about this?

Yes.

Really sure?

Absolutely.

Then it’s your choice. Don’t blame anyone later.

And sometimes, my playful side takes over while watching charts:

Up or down today?

Up, please.

Did the market hear you?

I hope so!

When Bitcoin suddenly jumps, I can’t help laughing: “At least give me a warning!” But the truth is, no one can. That’s crypto.

Through all the ups and downs, I stick to my plan. I don’t chase the market or spend my last dollar. Calm, prepared, and patient—that’s how I take advantage of opportunities. Bitcoin leads, altcoins follow, and I follow my strategy with humor, patience, and faith.

And in quiet moments, my second inner voice whispers:

Aren’t we awesome?

Absolutely.

I feel proud and grateful. Crypto has become part of my life, and the rest… is in God’s hands.#FedRateCutPrediction
