#美联储降息 $ETH $HOLO $PEPE This wave of market activity is indeed turbulent. The Federal Reserve's new dot plot just came out, and the market's reaction is quite interesting — the federal funds rate is still stuck in the 3.50%-3.75% range, with no movement in the short term.

The key point is this: the entire year only expects a 25 basis point rate cut, with inflation data sticking at 2.4%, and the economic fundamentals remaining quite solid. Interestingly, Wall Street is highly divided — Goldman Sachs advocates at least two rate cuts this year, but there are also extreme factions betting on a more aggressive 150 basis point reduction. The attitude of the new Chair, Jerome H. Powell, has become the focus of market speculation.

The January FOMC meeting marks the climax of this cycle. Whether you're in the stock market or borrowing, you need to buckle up — because even subtle changes in policy signals can trigger intense market volatility. Will the rate cut cycle continue? Where will interest rates stabilize? These questions directly impact the performance of risk assets.

What do you think about the Fed's current pace of operations? Will they gradually ease liquidity in a measured way, or will they be hostage to economic data? Share your thoughts in the comments!

Just looking at 25 basis points, this hawkish stance is a bit over the top, feels like there will still be some easing later on. ETH has indeed hit a wall this round, wait until the January meeting, maybe there will be a reversal. Hassett's attitude is the key, the market is betting on whether he will be soft or not. On Wall Street, one wants 2 times, another wants 150 basis points, the disagreement is quite big, who the heck knows the true intentions. The rate cut cycle is not over yet, 2.4% inflation is not that exaggerated, short-term outlook is indeed uncertain. Buckle up for January, this statement is right, volatility is definitely unavoidable. Being data-driven is inevitable, macro conditions are not so easily controlled, anyway I am holding cash and observing.

Wait, a 25 basis point increase just to stabilize the market? I think it's unlikely. With such strong economic data, they still need to continue fighting inflation. Will Hasset really loosen up?

25 basis points? Laughing to death, this can't really make much difference at all --- Goldman Sachs says twice this year, extremists betting 150? I bet both will crash --- What tricks can Hasset pull off? Still depends on whether inflation buys it or not --- Liquidity release? What are you expecting, the data is stuck at 2.4% and can't shake it off --- The January FOMC is the real show, anything said now is pointless --- The economic fundamentals are so stable, why is the Fed in such a hurry to cut? Can't understand --- The crypto circle has long read from the Fed, it's just that no one believes it --- Blaming the Fed for this turbulence? To put it nicely, policy dilemma; to be harsh, they have no tricks left --- Interest rates are stuck here, playing with risk assets like this is really dangerous --- Kidnapped by economic data? Been kidnapped long ago, just no one dares to say it

Honestly, 25 basis points are not enough to exploit, this interest rate stickiness is even more stable than stablecoins [dog head] When it comes to liquidity release, politely it's gentle, harshly it's data-driven—anyway, retail investors are always the last to know the truth The FOMC has been debating for so long, which shows that on-chain opportunities are actually clearer. When gas fees drop below 30gwei, it's best to exit decisively Those betting on 150 basis points probably fear the next crisis. I've seen this optimism too many times Instead of guessing what the Federal Reserve is thinking, it's better to see what large wallets are doing recently—on-chain data never lies

Hasset, what's his attitude really? That's the key, everything else is just superficial.

25 basis points? Bro, you're just delaying; inflation sticking around means it hasn't been fully eliminated yet. Oh, now this gets interesting. Goldman Sachs says cut twice, extremists are playing with 150... The Federal Reserve is just squeezing toothpaste here. Who's really in charge? PEPE, this trash coin, is actually fluctuating with the FOMC meeting. Truly amazing, haha. You can see the signs as early as January. Waiting for Hasset's next move, but I bet the Fed is still scared; liquidity can't hold up. Interest rates can't move here, risk assets will keep taking hits. Anyway, we should just bet on some small coins and take a shot.
