Cryptocurrencies are bracing for a new Federal Reserve meeting, although this one is not as crucial as previous ones. The Fed is expected to pause its interest rate cuts, and the markets have already adjusted to this expectation due to supporting data. This leads to an analysis of which days of the past year were the most profitable for cryptocurrencies.
Profitable Days in Cryptocurrency
An analyst known as DaanCrypto Trades reviewed data from 2025 to identify the most profitable days in cryptocurrency trading. According to the findings, Bitcoin’s daily profit averages increase on two specific days of the week: Wednesdays and Sundays.
Wednesdays are typically when the Fed announcements and significant US economic data are released. Sundays, however, represent a day for preparing for the upcoming week, where Bitcoin experiences adjustments often aligning with CME closures.
“These statistics regarding Bitcoin’s returns from last year remain astonishing. The gains are concentrated on Wednesdays and Sundays, with Wednesday emerging as significantly the best day. However, by Thursday and Friday, these gains are often reversed. Being aware of the specific days and times when movements are expected is beneficial, as most activities are linked to FOMC and major data releases on these days.”
In discussing historical data, it should be noted that markets often decline post-Fed meetings. Martinez reminded investors that except for one interest rate decision, Bitcoin’s price fell after all other meetings last year.
Coinbase Premium
BTC’s chances of a sustainable rise are slim unless American investors regain their appetite. On-chain analyst Anıl highlighted that the Coinbase Premium remains in a negative zone, posing challenges for an upward trend. The changes after the US market opens will be closely monitored.
“The Bitcoin Coinbase Premium Index remains deep in the discount opportunity zone. This situation complicates the creation of a sustainable upward trend in pricing.”
Every rise in Bitcoin turns into a short selling opportunity, leading to psychological difficulties for investors. The perception that short positions have long provided profitable opportunities is exhausting investors. For this perception to shift, a rapid breakthrough past 98,000 USD followed by a swift move beyond 101,000 USD is necessary.
