Interest Rate Decision and Investor Interest
The U.S. Federal Reserve’s decision to keep interest rates steady between 4.25% and 4.50% created a positive market atmosphere before hitting Bitcoin volatility. Following this announcement, the S&P 500 index rose by 0.43%, while the VIX index dropped by 7.71%. This optimism in financial markets also placed buying pressure on Bitcoin.
Lookonchain: After four months of inactivity, re-entered market with a 100 Bitcoin purchase at $9.78 million.
In addition, U.S.-based spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds recorded a net inflow of $142 million. This positive flow bolstered market confidence and underscored the importance of maintaining key support levels according to investors. Bitfinex analysts suggest that if the $95,000 support holds, Bitcoin could surpass its all-time high of $109,000.
These developments in Bitcoin and the broader crypto market give investors a chance to closely monitor the market. The data indicates that short position liquidations might lead to price increases, urging investors to exercise caution during this phase.
