#密码资产动态追踪 The Federal Reserve's 2026 Rate Cut Expectations Ignite Market Imagination



Recently, the Fed's decision-makers signaled that in 2026, they might directly cut interest rates by 150 basis points while also pledging to create millions of jobs. They claim inflation is under control, although this statement sounds somewhat optimistic.

What does this mean? Simply put, a large influx of liquidity is about to enter the market. Whenever an easing cycle begins, high-volatility assets tend to become targets for capital inflows, and cryptocurrencies are no exception.

History offers many references: during the significant rate cut cycle in 2020, Bitcoin surged from the $5,000 range to $60,000; in the mild rate cut environment of 2024, Ethereum also doubled in value. This rate cut is unprecedented in magnitude, exceeding the total of the previous two cycles. Currently, the market is in a preparatory phase, with various crypto assets awaiting this catalyst. Institutional investors are eager to jump in, and retail participation windows may not be open for long.

Some analysts believe that in this cycle, Bitcoin could challenge the $150,000 mark, and Ethereum breaking through $20,000 is not just wishful thinking. However, caution is advised: before the rate cut is implemented, the market may undergo a deep correction to complete a shakeout, but considering $38,000 as a potential bottom is not unfounded.

**What do you think about this opportunity?**
- Is $100,000-$150,000 a reasonable target for BTC?
- Or could it push more aggressively toward $150,000-$200,000?
- Or is $200,000 and above the true top?

A 150 basis point cut all at once? The Federal Reserve is really playing a big game here.

A 150 basis point cut all at once, this time really is different... Institutions are waiting for the wind, retail investors need to seize the opportunity.

150 basis points? Wake up, the Federal Reserve is just making empty promises again. Trust me, going all in with 150,000 to 200,000 is the right move. Being conservative will only put you at a disadvantage.

150 basis points? No way, the Federal Reserve is really good at making promises this time. Wait, does this mean I should go all in right now? Honestly, 150,000 Bitcoin sounds great, but I still want to see if I can catch the bottom at 3.8. Institutions are already positioning themselves, retail investors need to act quickly!

150 basis points? Sounds tempting, but I still feel this explanation is a bit hollow. If it really washes to 3.8, I would go all in, but I don't dare to bet now. 150,000 BTC? Let's wait and see how institutions move.
