Note: On August 28, NVIDIA earnings report will also be released. AI altcoins are likely to price in the expectation days before this earnings report. We have seen similar things in previous reports.
How Will It Affect Cryptocurrencies?
Jackson Hole is the most important economic meeting of this month. Officials from G20 countries will evaluate the state of the global economy here. Statements from the Fed Chairman and others are of key importance, especially amid global recession concerns. It is possible that central banks will also explain their stance towards cryptocurrencies here.
Global inflation has now been broken, and the Fed is forced to make delayed cuts because it cannot risk raising rates again after starting to cut them. However, other central banks have started making cuts. Powell may also say things about the interest rate path and not choking the global economy further at this meeting.
The Fed minutes to be released on Wednesday may again contain important details. Perhaps we will see more details about the cut here.
