If inflation is indeed contained as some analysts suggest, what happens next? The case for rate cuts is becoming harder to ignore—especially for those holding risk assets. Lower rates typically mean cheaper capital flowing into growth opportunities, and historically that's been a tailwind for alternative assets beyond traditional equities.
The Fed's policy direction matters more than most realize. When borrowing costs drop, investors often rotate toward higher-yielding or more speculative positions. This dynamic has always influenced how capital flows across markets, including the digital asset space.
The question isn't whether cuts will happen, but when—and whether markets are priced accordingly. Keep an eye on how central bank rhetoric shifts in coming months. Asset allocation strategies may need recalibrating depending on what actually materializes versus what's currently priced in.

ngl the "when cuts happen" angle is getting priced in already—seen this pattern before. thing is, what's actually *spoken* vs what traders front-run are two different beasts entirely. red flags detected if everyone's already rotated into alts before the official signal hits. that's how you get caught holding the bag when rhetoric doesn't match reality.

Regarding the interest rate cut expectations, it seems the market has already priced in half... The real uncertainty lies in whether the Fed will stick to its hardline stance or not.
