This shift could impact cryptocurrency markets, with Bitcoin and Ethereum historically reacting to such monetary policy changes by displaying heightened volatility and trading volume.
As of November 18, the U.S. Federal Reserve’s probability of a 25 bps rate cut for December stands at 50% due to weak jobs reports, impacting financial strategies.
