Bloomberg: Traders are focusing on the Federal Reserve's interest rate cut decision
According to Bloomberg, Bitcoin took a breather after first breaking through $108,000. Traders are waiting for the anticipated decision of the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates and assessing the optimism brought about by President-elect Donald Trump's support for cryptocurrencies.
Trump has promised to introduce friendly regulatory policies aimed at allowing the United States to dominate in the field of cryptocurrencies and supports the idea of establishing strategic national Bitcoin reserves. The upcoming inclusion of MicroStrategy into Nasdaq 100 index also added momentum to this optimism as it opens up possibilities for further profits from Bitcoin investments for the company. It is widely expected that Fed will implement another rate cut of 25 basis points on Wednesday, but due to strong US economic growth and inflation risks brought by Trump's broader agenda, clarity on future policy direction has decreased.
