"Significant rate cuts in 2026!" When this sentence pops out of the mouth of a big figure, what's the first reaction? The market was stunned for three seconds, then burst into awkward laughter—bro, the script for 2025 isn't even finished, and you're already previewing the 2026 surprise?



Laugh all you want, but cold sweat really started to break out. The memory of last year's dovish disappointment is still vivid: everyone was ready with glasses to celebrate, only for the Fed to say, "Rate cut of 25 basis points? Only one chance next year." That scene was almost like public execution—asset prices soared first, then turned bloodshot, then withered, and finally just laid flat. This isn't policy adjustment; it's clearly a large-scale emotional manipulation in the financial world.

Now this "2026 forward-looking check" feels more like salt on an old wound. 2026? What a joke! Crypto players want to double their holdings this week, not a pie in the sky three years from now to satisfy their hunger.

But here's the magic—every time traditional finance swings between "rate hikes and cuts," cryptocurrencies always perform outrageous plots. While Wall Street is still debating how the Fed will move next quarter, BTC and various ETFs are already lighting bonfires in the ruins. The more liquidity becomes ambiguous, the livelier the decentralized betting tables. The Fed worries about how many times to cut rates in a year, a big shot fantasizes about a feast three years down the line, and this "policy fog period" just happens to be the carnival for altcoins.

Even more interesting: the longer the rate cut expectations are delayed, the more intense the "anti-inflation narrative" in the crypto market becomes. Institutions are waiting for the Fed to loosen the purse strings? Retail investors are already throwing parties in MEME tokens. While traditional markets are still guessing the cards, the crypto world has already changed hands several times.

So don't just focus on 2026, friends—bull markets never wait for policies to be officially implemented; they only grow wildly when expectations are most chaotic and directions most fuzzy. Whether this pie in the sky can be baked or not, the heat in these two years is enough to pump up three rounds of altcoin hype.

Now the ball is in your court: do you believe in that distant 2026 myth, or take advantage of this chaotic period to make early moves?

To be honest, this wave of "forward checks" is just a permission control vulnerability—giving expectations but not delivering liquidity. The "25 basis points" operation from last year, combined with some contracts' integer overflow logic, looks fine on paper, but in practice, everything collapses during execution. In the crypto world, after seeing this kind of chain exploitation for the past two years, the policy fog period is actually the easiest time to get exposed.

The Federal Reserve is making empty promises, and the crypto world is throwing a party—it's that simple. Speaking of which, what’s the use of the 2026 myth? The current chaos period is the real deal. The Federal Reserve is wavering left and right, and altcoins have already gone wild—this is what cyberpunk should look like. Honestly, rather than waiting for 2026, it’s better to go all in now. Anyway, the next two years are enough for several rounds of turbulence. This move is too obvious—dovish miscommunication, long-term promises, just to stabilize expectations. But the crypto market simply doesn’t buy it. The most profitable time is during policy fog periods, everyone in the crypto space understands this—just waiting for Wall Street to catch on. Again with this? Every year they call for rate cuts, but what happens? They just keep cutting the grass on the韭菜, and 2026 is probably just a mirage. The most ridiculous part is retail investors have already enjoyed the MEME coins, while institutions are still kneeling at the Federal Reserve’s feet—that’s our advantage.

The Fed's combination punch is truly excellent, with top-notch pie-in-the-sky rhetoric. Wait, if you think about it the other way around, it's actually an opportunity. 2026 is still far away, but now those with FOMO should rush into the copycat projects. The longer the pie is delayed, the more you can earn; this is the true essence of the crypto world. The policy fog period is actually the carnival season, I agree with that. Since it's all gambling anyway, better to seize the chaotic period and go all in. The Federal Reserve really knows how to play—talk big and harvest profits at the same time. Don't believe the 2026 plan; just watch how the market explodes in the next two years.

The Fed's tricks are really clever, drawing the pie so skillfully --- Waiting until 2026? That just irritates me. Right now, MEME coins are the main course --- Haha, that's hilarious. Last year was already a disaster with the pigeon, and now you want a repeat --- The chaos period is the real gold and silver. These two years are enough for three rounds of gains --- I don't believe in the 2026 plan. Believe it or not, I think this week will take off --- The more liquidity is blurred, the more lively the crypto circle. I quite agree with this logic --- Forward-looking check? I only want a double in the short term, thank you --- Wall Street is guessing the bottom card, but we're already at the MEME party --- The policy fog period is indeed a paradise for altcoins, I can't deny that --- 2026? Wake up, the bull market has already started. Just look at this wave of MEME coins

Haha, the Federal Reserve is playing word games again, this time directly issuing a three-year smoke screen. Waiting for the rate cuts is less effective than waiting for altcoins to take off; anyway, this period is long enough to cause chaos. 2026? I only care if BTC can break new highs next week, everything else is just free. They really treat us like leeks waiting to be harvested; I'm used to it. The more uncertain the rate cut expectations, the more opportunities there are for retail investors. Well said. This period of policy fog is indeed a good time to jump in, but be careful not to get caught. The Fed debates how many times to cut rates in a year, but in our crypto circle, we've already experienced three market cycles. Who believes the 2026 pie? Anyone who does is foolish. Making money now is what truly matters. This time feels even more outrageous than last year's dovish event, directly throwing out a three-year check. Regardless, altcoins will definitely start to rise again during this period. Get ready to get cut.
